Dear SWEssex PCT

I would like to make further requests under the FOI Act regarding
the SCR Pilot within SWEssex PCT.

For the purposes of the Act, the date of your receipt of my request
will be 4th December.

In the minutes of the SUMMARY CARE RECORD EARLY ADOPTER PROJECT and
TPP Release 3 PROJECT BOARD MEETING held on Thursday 30th October
2008, reference is made to the new opt-out form:

"In addition Bill distributed the two sided Opt Out form

•Opt Out on side 1, and •‘I don’t want a Summary care Record’ risks
on side 2."

Please could you email me this form.

As per Section 4a of Part 1 of the FOI Act (
http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/ukp...
) I would like the information in question held at the time when my
request is received (draft or otherwise), except that account may
be taken of any amendment or deletion made between now and the
latest time by which the information is to be communicated to me,
being an amendment or deletion that would have been made regardless
of the receipt of my request.

I would be grateful if you would be kind enough to send me the
requested information promptly and in any event not later than the
twentieth working day following the date of receipt of my request -
that is by then end of the working day of 6th January 2009.

If my request is denied in whole or in part, or specific items
within any documents are withheld from disclosure, then you must
justify all deletions by reference to specific exemptions of the
act, as per Section 17 of the Act (
http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/ukp...
). Where you rely on a qualified exemption to withhold disclosure,
you are obliged to consider the public interest in your decision
and the refusal notice must explain not only which exemption
applies and why, but also the public interest arguments addressed
in reaching the decision.

I wish to receive the information by email; I believe such a
request would be reasonable in these circumstances. As per Section
11 of Part 1 of the FOI Act (
http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/ukp...
) I would be grateful if you would "so far as reasonably
practicable give effect to that preference"; if you determine that
it is not reasonably practicable to comply with this preference
then you are required by law to notify me of the reasons for your
determination.

The “return address” (to which the information that I have
requested be should be sent ) is the email address that this
particular request originates from (as I am now using a unique
valid email address to track each of my many FOI requests). I refer
you to the Freedom of Information (FOI) Guidance on Processing
Requests ( http://www.dca.gov.uk/foi/guidance/progu... )
which clearly states: "If a request is received by email and,
although no postal address is given, the email address of the
sender is included, then this should be treated as the return
address."

I would be grateful if you would kindly acknowledge receipt of this
request as recommended by the ICO (“It would be good practice to
acknowledge receipt of requests and to refer to the 20 working day
time limit, so that applicants know their request is being dealt
with.”).

Thank you once again.

Yours sincerely,

Dr Neil Bhatia
