Dear Dpo,
Dear RCS ENg.
Dear Dpo,
the ROyal College of Surgsons- I am informed may not have to answer an FOI, in this platform, however I did engage with their information governance department as your email on WDTK-site suggested.
who did communicate several times thus someone was "delaying" the response.
A per Tue, 13 Dec 2022, my requwst for honest and open information remains entirely un addressed.
Can I have the FOI request answered.
Yours sincerely,
helen hamill
Dear Dpo,
I am terribly disappointed in the failure to engage... why?
Helen
