Re: Freedom of Information Act 2000

Thank you for your email of 25 November in which you requested from the Insolvency Service:

I would like to request a break-down of the relevant intermediaries and their frequency of use of Breathing Space (Debt Respite Scheme) orders for the period 1st November 2021 – 31st October 2022.

Your request has been dealt with under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).

I can confirm the agency holds the information that you have requested and it is attached to this email.

If you are not satisfied with the response we have provided you and would like us to reconsider our decision by way of an internal review (IR), please contact our Information Rights Team at foi@insolvency.gov.uk or by post at:

You also have the right to contact the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) if you wish for them to investigate any complaint you may have regarding our handling of your request. However, please note that the ICO is likely to expect an IR to have been completed in the first instance.
