Dear Her Majesty's Treasury,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Her Majesty's Treasury's handling of my FOI request 'What savings have accrued to the public purse under the £30 reduction for claimants of ESA WRAG in each month since that reduction was implemented?'.
This question was also directed to the DWP by SNP MP Marion Fellows, and that Department refused to answer.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/w...
Yours faithfully,
Samuel Miller
