DWP fails to meet Information Commissioner deadline for possible benefit related deaths

As far as I can tell I haven’t uploaded the SAR Billy and SAR Valentina PDFs to this thread, only provided links.  One of the purposes of this thread is to maintain records of relevant documents as they can often become quite difficult to find as time passes, so am attaching here. There’s nothing new in this post, just for record keeping purposes.
