Dr Anthony William Baker
Dear General Medical Council,
Could you please confirm that you have pressurised the Whatdotheyknow Charity running this website into removing my request "Self-proclaimed 'sex abuse' expert Dr Anthony William Baker, Woking" dated 13th March 2011 from the site today (20th March 2012).
[irrelevant and potentially defamatory text removed]
Would you please arrange for my request to be reinstated immediately and provide an explanation for your actions which are incompatible with the Freedom of Information Act and the rationale behind it.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
C. Smith-Byrne

I refer to the email from GMC dated 20/4/2012 "they do not hold this info..." just wondered if this info has been shredded just like what happened in the Baby P Case

I have hidden a large number of annotations on this request that were not related to the request itself. Please remember: annotations on WhatDoTheyKnow are to help people get the information they want, or to give them pointers to places they can go to help them act on it.

It appears my annotation has been considered as inappriorirate to my remarks concening Dr. Anthony Baker.
I will continue to endose genuine complaints against this [potentially defamatory text removed] practioner.

Since a potentially defamatory annotation has been posted within days of my cleaning up this request, I've now disabled annotations on this request.
