Dear Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust,

can you please send me a copy of your reply to an FOI request about 3 years worth of bonuses and expenses for staff/ceo and executive directors, that was sent around the end of November to NHS Trusts.

Do you have Gifts, Hospitality and Sponsorship Policy or similar and a Code of Conduct and can you please email me a copy. Can you send me a copy of your register for 2008/9 for Gifts, Hospitality and Sponsorship.

Yours faithfully,
