If you have made a new complaint - we’re unlikely to look into it unless you have raised it with the responsible organisation (for a data protection complaint) or the responsible public authority (for a freedom of information complaint) first. Please make sure you have sent us a copy of their final response to you. We're supporting a high number of people with their complaints at the moment. For the latest timescales to allocate cases, please visit the make a complaint page on our website. We apologise for this delay but we want to reassure you we take your complaint very seriously.
If your correspondence relates to an existing case - we will add it to your case and consider it on allocation to a case officer. If you believe we have either failed to take appropriate steps to respond to your data protection complaint, or we do not provide you with information about the progress or outcome of your complaint within the next three months, you may be able to apply to the First-tier Tribunal to require us to respond to your complaint or to provide you with information about its progress.
