Dear Correctional Services Department,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Correctional Services Department's handling of my FOI request 'Request for statistics regarding penal population for years 2020 and 2021'.

[ GIVE DETAILS ABOUT YOUR COMPLAINT HERE ]

The answer given to me was redirecting me towards the statistics page which includes only the 2019 information, while the message tells me that it includes the info for 2020 (until September at least).
