From: Mr R. J. Poultney

Dear Canterbury District Health Board,

I am writing to request any and all documentation related to complaints received by the CDHB Referral Centre, within the 2014/2015 financial year, and from the start of the 2015 financial year.

I am not requesting any names to be mentioned, just the complaints i.e. patient/staff names, or any identifiable patient or staff content can be removed.

I would also like to know what changes have happened in response to these complaints, if any changes at all.

Yours faithfully,

Mr R. J. Poultney
