As required under the OIA, we will respond to your request within 20 working days. You should therefore receive a response on or before 27 October 2022.

If you have any queries, please feel free to contact 2DHB by return email or by emailing us at [email address] or [email address]. If any additional factors come to light which are relevant to your request, please do not hesitate to contact us so that these can be taken into account.
