Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of West Midlands Ambulance Service University NHS Foundation Trust's handling of my FOI request 'Cost of supplying food and drink to graduate engagement events'.

Dear Chris Kerr,
It is now 26 days since I requested the internal review and over 2 months since the original FOI request, I am a sure you are aware of the trusts legal responsibility to respond to FOI requests in a timely manner. However I do not believe that you have on this occasion.
I am now going to forward this request onto the information commissioner, with a detailed report of all WMAS responses thus far.
Yours sincerely,
Stephen yardley
