DVLA personal data disclosures

The request was partially successful.

Isa Bell, London UK

Dear Department for Transport,

For the last 3 years please list the annual quantity of personal data

[1] disclosed by DVLA via local authority terminals
[2] disclosed by DVLA to private companies, debt collection companies, private detectives and others
[3] Is the DVLA one executive agency under central government control or a privatised collection of limited companies?
[4] Why can't English motor vehicles and drivers resident in England register with an English entity - especially those who don't want to speak or write an ancient language lacking a full vocabulary like Welsh?
[5] How does the department regulate the so-called 'Swansea Joke Factory' (meaning the DVLA)?

Yours faithfully,

Isa Bell, London UK

Dear Department for Transport,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Department for Transport's handling of my FOI request 'DVLA personal data disclosures'.

The Department delegated its obligation to respond to a so-called Agency.

My question 4 remains unanswered. Its a lawful question of public interest. After all England is a country and Wales is a different country although currently government from and by England.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/d...

Yours faithfully,

Isa Bell, London UK
