Dear Sir or Madam,
This FOI request is further to the following previous request:
http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/li...
Thank you for your previous prompt response - it's good to see a
goverment agency making the effort to reply to people quickly!
The data you provided has been very useful, but it'd be even more
useful if phone numbers were available for testing stations. I know
VOSA have this data available, since it's already displayed through
your online MOT history service. Therefore I'd like to request an
up to date listing of testing centres with phone numbers in
spreadsheet format (Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice Calc etc).
Could I also suggest publishing this data on your website
regularly? It appears from the name of the file you sent me last
that you regenerate the list of testing centres on a monthly basis
- having it available on your FOI pages would be really useful
(Good on you for publishing your responses there in any case!)
Thank you,
Gareth Oakley

Dear Sir or Madam,
I previously wrote to you on the 4th January requesting an up to
date list of MOT centres (along with phone numbers). By law under
the Freedom of Information Act you should have replied no later
than the 2nd February, but you have yet to do so and have not asked
for further time to submit a response.
Please could you tell me when you are likely to have a response, or
if you are turning down the request the grounds which it has been
denied on.
Yours sincerely,
Gareth Oakley
