Dear Sir/Madam
Request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000
There is a request on the What do They Know website which is allocated to
Barnet and Chase Farm Hospitals but that I did not receive at the time.
The reference is
http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/number_of_consultant_level and the
question is
Please can you tell me the number of consultant level doctors on
duty in the Emergency department of St Thomas' Hospital at
night,(not on call at the end of a telephone).
St Thomas’ Hospital is part of the Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation
Trust and I note that there is a response posted to a very similar request on
the same page as your request – see
http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/consultant_cover_at_night_in_ae#in
coming-16774
Can you please confirm whether the question was incorrectly directed to
Barnet and Chase Farm Hospitals and, if so, update the status of this request
so that it no longer shows as being overdue. Alternatively, if you required this
information from us, can you please let me know. The Trust does its utmost
to respond to all requests within 20 working days and it is very unfortunate
that this request is showing as being overdue when it appears neither to have
been originally directly addressed to this Trust or received here.
Thank you in advance for your assistance in resolving this issue.
Yours sincerely
Alison Macdonald
Board Secretary
