When was ATOS SE. given the contracts to cover all IT /ASSESSMENTS & SECURITY?

taryn taylor made this Freedom of Information request to Prime Minister's Office This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Prime Minister's Office should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Prime Minister's Office,
Under the FOI act; please can I have the following information & an explanation as to;-

Why has the NHS & the dept.of HEALTH & SOCIAL CARE/DWP, kept secret that ATOS SE.Europe , has taken over the complete running of the system.
From all of the IT systems -Cloud
(collecting all OUR private information, I do not recall signing my consent, to give away my private details to a third party!)
To secret reporting from doctors,hospitals,O/T, physiotherapists, adult social care assessments, immobility assessments, elderly/disabled social housing, DWP the lists are endless!
When did the government & your department allow this to take place ie;
When was it discussed/when did the contract get signed & when was it implemented?
And what is the agreed length of the contract? How much has the department or government paid them or have they paid you or given /added in any benefits?

Atos SE. say (on their website) that they can SAVE governments & companies money by better IT etc. - well no wonder all these services have come to an absolute grinding halt!

Yours faithfully,

taryn taylor

Dear FOI Team Mailbox,
Dear Eirian
Thank you ,for your reply. But yet again , it is another dismissive reply sent as a download??
Please believe me, I am not aiming my criticism at you personally.
I know that you will not believe it (& nor do I) but it is entirely TRUE. That I HAVE also written to , Dept. of Health & Social Care. And surprise , surprise, this request & others , have completely baffled them all?
So, I am left rather perplexed , as to what these departments ACTUALLY do with their time? Surely , it is not all hours spent, on very long champagne & lobster lunches. Followed by , adding on MORE receipts to their expense claim forms.?
I AM WRITING TO THE CORRECT DEPT. for my FOI requests. As Mr Johnson was , if he can remember , only elected Prime Minister just a few months ago. I was under the assumption (rightly or wrongly).That he would have been FULLY INFORMED on taking office.
By all the heads of departments , of what URGENT MATTERS need attending to?
So please take ALL of my FOI requests BACK INTO HIS OFFICE. And ask him politely, to take another look & give me some very simple answers please. As PRIME MINISTER, he is NOT BEING PAID BY THE PUBLIC PURSE , to just do some "ducking & diving". It is however, a very important job that requires hard work. To carry it out, to the best of ones ability & to be accountable !!
I await your earliest reply. Thank you

Yours sincerely,

taryn taylor
