Dear Dear Tara,

I am still waiting for the Costing Request For Harvey

Parry's Prosthetic Legs/maintenance. Time is now overdue.

Dear Carly Newton,

Further to my freedom of information request on 5th February 2009, I am quite appalled that Enfield PCT does not have a clue as to the costings of Harveys legs/maintenance.

To date Harvey does not have a working pair of prosthetics legs from the NHS. Harvey has had 8 pairs of useless impractical prosthetics legs paid for by Enfield PCT.

As a taxpayer I feel that Enfield PCT are being wasteful with taxpayers money. Paying for prosthetics/services that do not work & worst of all not knowing the over all cost.

Enfield PCT has a duty to ensure that commissioned services meets the patients requirements.

I am writing to request an internal review of Enfield Primary Care Trust (PCT)'s handling of my FOI request 'Costing Request For Harvey Parry's Prosthetic Legs/maintenance'.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address:

The total cost provided by Enfield PCT of Harvey parry's prosthetic legs/maintenance to date is £26,942.14.

Even after this expense Harvey still does not have a working/comfortable pair of legs from the NHS.

The cost spent by Enfield PCT would of paid for 1 pair of American legs from StepAhead Prosthetics.

Why can't the government fund us for Harvey's American Legs, they work, are very practical, he wears them all day with no discomfort.

Help us to support Harveys legs/maintenace, We know that they work very well & have given Harvey a new life.

Vist Harvey's site to give support/donation at

Make a difference to Harvey life.
