Dear SG SecFin-Sec Gp Mailbox (MULTIUSER),
On 2nd thoughts please instruct an internal review. Orders in preparation for War do not go missing. The signals exists. Please do not become embroiled in the corruption yourselves. It is not a good look to have on the CV.
Best Regards,

Dear Mr Roberts,
Thank you for your email of 6 August 2023 requesting an internal review of
FOI2023/02694. Unfortunately, your complaint has exceeded the time limit
as specified in the response, dated 30 March 2023, in which it was stated
that a request for an internal review must be made within 40 working days.
We note, however, that your request under this present reference number is
the same or similar to previous requests, such as the one MOD processed
under FOI2022/07695
[1]https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/d...
which has already been the subject of an internal review by this
Department, dated 22 October 2022:
[2]https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/8...
It is reasonable to assume that had we conducted an internal review in
relation to this present request (FOI2023/02694) that the outcome would
have been similar.
If you remain dissatisfied, you may make a complaint to the Information
Commissioner -

Dear CIO-FOI-IR (MULTIUSER),
It is simply not true that this information does not exist.
You do not subject your own troops (50,000+) to experimental vaccine combinations without very strict authority at the highest level. It is documented/fax/signal and does not put National Security at risk. Therefore cannot be classified. We are not a Banana Republic.
Provide the information.
Or reissue as a new request , then instruct internal review following 20 days.
When our Forces are sent to War. We expect results and not excuses. The least they can expect is a little bit of loyalty and honour from someone within the walls of Whitehall.
Take your time and look in the results files rather than excuses files.
Regards
Gavin Roberts
Dear Mr Roberts,
Thank you for your email dated 23 August 2023.
It is within your rights to make a complaint in the processing of your information request to the Information Commissioners Office at https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/.
The Department could re-process your request under a new Freedom of Information request reference number.
However, I should advise you that as it would be a repeat request it is likely that you will receive a s14(2) repeat request response as the Departments position will not have changed since your previous request dated 1st March 2023.
It may help if you were to read the section 14(2) ICO guidance https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/foi....
Yours sincerely,
MOD Information Rights Compliance Team
Dear Ministry of Defence,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
It is very trivial
You realise this is in front of the public eyes and media?
MOD behaviour to its veterans.
Please find the solution to produce this information that is on the record as it is impossible to lose this information.
Thanks for not 8nsulting veterans intelligence and more importantly the publics in advance
Kind Regards
Gavin Roberts
Veterans and families of the fallen

Dear CIO-FOI-IR (MULTIUSER),
Maybe mitigating circumstances are taken into consideration.
When the person requesting the information is a Gulf War Veteran/pensioner, suffering with conditions. 1 being memory problems caused by vaccines subjected to them in the Gulf War, confirmed by MOD's 2 X Doctor's on medical discharge. Where it states vaccines most likely caused conditions?
I can forward the documents, if required? Although inquest team 2 within GLD are sitting with them already
Please instruct internal review, if there is still a problem
