Emails between the NIHR and the DHSC regarding objection to proposed puberty blocker trial

Waiting for an internal review by Department of Health and Social Care of their handling of this request.

Dear Department of Health and Social Care,

On the 13th February 2025, I received the following email from Dr. Dani Preedy at the NIHR, regarding my objection to the proposed puberty blocker clinical trial ("Puberty blocker clinical trial objection.pdf"):

"Dear Orlando

I have discussed your query with colleagues at the Department of Health and Social Care. They have confirmed that there is no further information that NIHR can provide beyond the response you have already received...."

Please could I request any electronic communication, e.g. emails, that may exist between Dr. Preedy and the DHSC regarding any discussion of my objection to the proposed puberty blocker clinical trial ("Puberty blocker clinical trial objection.pdf").

Please could I also request any electronic communication, e.g. emails, that may exist more broadly between the NIHR and the DHSC regarding any discussion of my objection to the proposed puberty blocker clinical trial ("Puberty blocker clinical trial objection.pdf").

The time frame that these discussion could have taken place would be between the beginning of December 2025 and the end of February 2025.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

Orlando Woolf
