Internal review and complaint process
If you are not satisfied with our response to your request for information, you can
request that the matter is reconsidered as an internal review. To do so please write
to, or email, the Information Compliance and Governance Manager at:
SRA Information Compliance
The Cube
199 Wharfside Street,
Birmingham B1 1RN
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxx.xxx.xx
Please note that your request for an internal review must be submitted within 60 days
of our decision. We aim to issue a formal response to internal reviews within 20
working days.
Internal review process
The internal review will consider any limitations applied and the information
disclosed. This aspect of the review is final and there is no further avenue for appeal.
It is also important for you to note that, as this is a voluntary code, the Information
Commissioner is unable to consider your complaint.
Escalation to a complaint
If you are still not satisfied with the response that you have received, you can make a
complaint to our Complaints Team about the way we have handled your request.
The complaints team will only be able to review the matters related to our service, for
example our communication and compliance with the deadline.
If you are unhappy with the Complaint's Team decision, you can escalate the matter
further and ask the Independent Reviewer (Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution)
to review your complaint. The service is independent to us and they will review how
we handled your complaint, not our decision.
