Dear Companies Registry,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Companies Registry's handling of my FOI request 'Objections to application for a money lender's license', for which a substantive response is long overdue.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://accessinfo.hk/en/request/objecti...

Yours faithfully,

Charlie
