Subject: Re: PROTECT: Response from ICO [Ref. IRQ0514032]

Dear Sir

Firstly, I must apologise for an early error. I was referring to the Met Police, not the Met Office.

I do not accept you can withhold the meeting notes from the ICO raid on the Consultants Association.

I do not accept your decision and I request a review please.
