Information regarding the SCR/TPP Project: March 2009
Dear SWEssex PCT
I would like to make further requests under the FOI Act regarding the SCR Pilot within SWEssex PCT.
For the purposes of the Act, the date of your receipt of my request will be 1st April.
• Please could you kindly send me the minutes (draft or otherwise) of any SWEssex PCT Summary Care Record and/or TPP Release 3/4 Project/Programme Board meeting held between 01.03.09 and 31.03.09.
• Please could you kindly send me any SWEssex PCT SCR Project/Programme Board Highlight Reports, Update Reports or Progress Reports created or updated between 01.03.09 and 31.03.09.
• Please could you kindly send me any SWEssex PCT TPP Release 3/4 Project/Programme Board Highlight Reports, Update Reports or Progress Reports created or updated between 01.03.09 and 31.03.09.
• Please could you send me any SWEssex PCT SCR and/or TPP Release 3/4 Project Risk Logs, Issue Logs or Decision Logs created or updated between 01.03.09 and 31.03.09.
As per Section 4a of Part 1 of the FOI Act
( http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/ukp... ) I would like the information in question held at the time when my request is received (draft or otherwise), except that account may be taken of any amendment or deletion made between now and the latest time by which the information is to be communicated to me, being an amendment or deletion that would have been made regardless of the receipt of my request.
I would be grateful if you would be kind enough to send me the requested information promptly and in any event not later than the twentieth working day following the date of receipt of my request - that is by then end of the working day of 1st May.
If my request is denied in whole or in part, or specific items within the responses are withheld from disclosure, then you must justify all deletions by reference to specific exemptions of the act, as per Section 17 of the Act
( http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/ukp... ). Where you rely on a qualified exemption to withhold disclosure, you are obliged to consider the public interest in your decision and the refusal notice must explain not only which exemption applies and why, but also the public interest arguments addressed in reaching the decision.
I wish to receive the information by email; I believe such a request would be reasonable in these circumstances. As per Section 11 of Part 1 of the FOI Act ( http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/ukp... ) I would be grateful if you would "so far as reasonably practicable give effect to that preference"; if you determine that it is not reasonably practicable to comply with this preference then you are required by law to notify me of the reasons for your determination.
The “return address” (to which the information that I have requested be should be sent ) is the email address that this particular request originates from.
I would be grateful if you would kindly acknowledge receipt of this request as recommended by the ICO (“It would be good practice to acknowledge receipt of requests and to refer to the 20 working day time limit, so that applicants know their request is being dealt with.”).
Thank you once again.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Neil Bhatia
