Dear DWP Adelphi Freedom-of-Information-Request,
I have not received a response to my FOI request.
By law the FOI request should have been answered promptly.
As I have not received a response by 5th November 2009 and you have
not replied with a legal reason why you would need extra time to
reply you are now breaking the law.

Yours sincerely,

Steve Johnson

Dear DWP Adelphi Freedom-of-Information-Request,

Many thanks for the information.

I am however disappointed that data relating to time to
open/process mail received is not able to be given.

5 years ago on contacting the Dept. regarding a form sent by mail I
was informed " we do not get to open them for at least 4 weeks due
to the amount we receive".
On the same phone discussion this year virtually the exact same
statement was made.

Will data relating to mail processing now be collected to ensure
that the system improves ?

I must also say that when explained to the staff at DWP Blackpool
that the matter was urgent they then quickly dealt with my form in
a very efficient way.

Yours sincerely,

Steve Johnson
