Tallaght Hospital, supported by Ms H. Dixon, rely on records that don't exist

Refuse to produce letters they claim they wrote to me:

Ms Dixon the Data Protection Commissioner [D.P.C.] informed me that I had been twice given the written opportunity, by Tallaght Hospital, to object to them handing over my confidential medical records [c200 documents] to non-medical outside third parties and as I'd failed to object, they handed over my medical records.

As I had no knowledge of any such notifications to which I failed to respond/object to, and as if they existed they should have already been released to me under previous Freedom of Information [FoI] requests, I made a formal FOI request to the hospital.

This was made the more important as Ms Dixon had refused to give me sight of said documents and I believed they did not exist.

The hospital requested I supply proof of identification and I referred them to my certified birth cert previously lodged with and accepted by them.

They informed that that was not good enough and requested I supply current identification [a driver’s license or passport] and until I do that they would not process my request. I don't have a driver's licence or passport.

Clearly D.P.C. and the hospital are working together, after all, if the hospital did write to me and I failed to respond, as claimed, what's the problem of producing said letters?

Exist or not, the letters would not suffice in law as a patient has to give permission, nothing less is legally acceptable.

This coupled with the D.P.C. refusing to protect my Rights regarding my medical records can only help the hospital get away with leaving me crippled.

This is not the only time that claims have been made that documentation exists but all parties refuse to produce them.

Clearly Ms Dixon and the hospital will, not for only time, make whatever false claims are necessary to dismiss my valid and serious complaints - just like the Medical Council did as proven by the Information Commissioner's legally binding decision.
