Thank you for your request received by Kent Police on 8^th September 2019.

database. This means that whilst we will endeavour to complete your
request as soon as possible it is likely that a response may well be
delayed, particularly where crime data is sought.

 

Your interest in Kent Police is appreciated and pending a specific
response to your request, I enclose a sheet, which summarises your rights.
Should you have any further inquiries concerning this matter, please write

Dear Kent Police,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Kent Police's handling of my FOI request 'Police Station Custody Suite Information'.

This request is long overdue. By law the Kent Police should have replied by now.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/p...

Yours faithfully,

Jessica Branch

Dear Ms Branch,

 

Until a response is issued an internal review is not possible since the
purpose of such a review is to consider the response.

 

We apologise that we have not yet responded to your request but please be
assured that we are working on providing a response to your request as
soon as possible.

 

We are aware that any response will now exceed the statutory time limit
for responding, however we are processing many hundreds of requests under
the FOIA with limited resources and as a consequence there are delays. 

 

If you would like to make a complaint then you may do so by contacting the
Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), via [1]https://ico.org.uk/

 

Kind regards,
