*The decision maker must be an SES officer (either substantive or acting). It is recommended that the peer adviser is also
an SES officer, but this is not mandatory, as it will depend upon your team and the circumstances of the matter.
A copy of the request is
attached.
Responsibilities
The FOI Team will notify you once a decision letter has been signed and any documents to be
released have been approved by the decision maker. Otherwise the responsibility sits with the
decision maker to brief up if the matter warrants it.
Kind regards
