“Jenna and Ben, you have already expanded a little on what I am about to ask, but do add more if possible. What evidence have you seen of WPQs being used as a follow-up on FOI requests, or vice versa?”

“I agree with my hon. Friend that the audiology action day was phenomenal, and that those in the audiology services at Doncaster royal infirmary are doing everything they can to improve the service that they offer my constituents, who are their patients.

Reform councillors in Doncaster are considering reversing their decision to support …”
