Dear ,

Thank you for your email of 3 May 2015 requesting the following information:

Can you tell me the identities of the units and sub-units of the Royal Army Medical Corps under the Army 2020 plan (especially the Reaction and Adaptable Force divisions)

I am treating your correspondence as a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).

A search for the information has now been completed within the Ministry of Defence, and I can confirm that all the information in scope of your request is held. The Army 2020 units and sub-units of the Royal Medical Corps are enclosed at Annex A. The Reaction and Adaptable Force Divisions have been identified.

Under Section 16 of the Act (Advice and Assistance) you may find it helpful to note that the Army website provides further information on the individual medical units, please see the link provided below:

If you are not satisfied with this response or you wish to complain about any aspect of the handling of your request, then you should contact me in the first instance. If informal resolution is not possible and you are still dissatisfied then you may apply for an independent internal review by contacting the Information Rights Compliance team, 1st Floor, MOD Main Building, Whitehall, SW1A 2HB (e-mail CIO-FOI-IR@mod.uk). Please note that any request for an internal review must be made within 40 working days of the date on which the attempt to reach informal resolution has come to an end.

If you remain dissatisfied following an internal review, you may take your complaint to the Information Commissioner under the provisions of Section 50 of the Freedom of Information Act. Please note that the Information Commissioner will not investigate your case until the MOD internal review process has been completed. Further details of the role and powers of the Information Commissioner can be found on the Commissioner's website, http://www.ico.gov.uk.
