CBL Series of Files

The request was successful.

Dear Department of Health,

I write regarding the CBL 8 series of files, these are concerned with Central Blood Laboratories Authority CBLA. Some volumes of these files are available on TNA's catalogue, but not all of them. I have outlined those which are not yet on TNA's Online Discovery Catalogue below. Given that the Department says it is committed to transparency please can you make the files available on the TNA's Catalogue as soon as possible?

Dear Department of Health,

You have not responded to the following FOI request placed on 10th September 2017: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/c...

By law, you should normally have responded promptly and by 6th October 2017.

This is a recurring issue and it would be helpful if you could please bring response times in-line with those described under law. An internal review I requested for a separate issue earlier this year took almost 2 months longer than it should have (FOI 1083997). I note you have since apologised for this. Please, could you provide an update in regard to the above request?

Yours faithfully,
JJ Evans

Dear Department of Health and Social Care,

Dear JJ Evans,
 
Thank you for your further correspondence of 1 March about the CBL 8
series of files.

 

I am advised that there are no further volumes in this series after volume
16.

 

The Freedom of Information Act applies only to recorded information such
as paper or electronic archive material.  As there is no recorded
information in this case, your request did not fall under the provisions
of the Act on this occasion.

 

I hope this reply is helpful.

 

Yours sincerely,
 
Malcolm Jones
