- Response
1). (i) We are unable to provide information for the 2017 – 2018 period. This information is not held in a format that is easily accessible as it is held by several departments and not recorded centrally and would be a disproportionate effort to retrieve which would exceed 18 hours. This information is therefore exempt on the grounds of cost (Section 12(1)).
(ii) Our Trust made 4 interim appointments in the period 2018 – 2019.
2). (i) Please see response above.
