Ditto.......... -----Original Message----- From: This list is for those interested in Data Protection issues [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Ken Allen Sent: 13 February 2006 13:59 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Directors telephone numbers Surely in the case of this FOI enquiry the PA's number IS the direct number. If this is a case of a company contact, they will expect to get the PA and not the switchboard. The real direct line is in my view a 'private' number. However, if the director or an officer has no PA, then we should supply the actual direct number. We are public servants after all and, for example, my 'direct' number is published on in our web pages. I don't have a PA.
