Dear Pero Mandiloski,

I am contacting you further to your email, a copy of which was received on
30 August 2022.

I would be grateful if you could please confirm the Freedom of Information
(FOI) reference number that would have been sent upon receipt of any FOI
requests the Trust may receive.

Please note that in an effort to avoid the Trust encountering potential
malicious malware, external links, such as the one contained within your
email, will not be accessed/processed under FOI.  I would therefore please
ask for the aforementioned FOI reference in order that staff can then
investigate further.

I hope this information helps,

Kind regards
