Dear Disclosure Unit Freedom of Information,

West Yorkshire Police are breaking the law - if I do not get a substantive response in 24 hours I WILL instigate an internal review.

Freedom of Information,

Dear Ms Scott

I apologise for the further delay.

Unfortunately, an initial draft response required additional historic information to be gathered and my colleague is currently awaiting a response from Calderdale Division.

This matter is being actively pursued and a completed response will be forwarded to you as soon as possible.

Your patience and cooperation is appreciated.

Regards,

Damian Carr
