Dear E-ACT,

Please note your response to my FOI request re Pakistani representation is long overdue. You are required by law to provide the information requested.

A number of other secondary schools have already replied. When their information is published, your school will be included as a 'Failure to Respond'. This may mean that at a later date you receive a follow-up request from me or other members of the public with an interest in the same subject matter.

Yours faithfully,

Dr Karamat iqbal
