August 25, 2020 Dear Rocel Vincent Peñoso, I refer to the letter of Mr. Francos Gerard Angeles on July 25, 2020 about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Philippine Renal Disease Registry Annual Report. It is noted that you have another request dated January 9, 2020 with Tracking No. #NKTI-881582579685 on "The Reported Number of Patients with Kidney Disease". We have forwarded this request to the concerned office. Is this second request dated January 26, 2020 with Tracking Number #NKTI-856810170938 for PRDR Annual Report, just a follow-up and additional information needed for your initial request or is this a new request? In the meantime, we will also be forwarding this request to the concerned unit. There may be additional requirements for the processing of this request. Please email the Program Manager of Renal disease Control Program (REDCOP), who is in charge of gathering and releasing the requested information, at [email protected] and address it to: Dr. Teresita Susan Jorge Program Manager Renal Disease Control Program NKTI Should this second request with Tracking Number just be a follow-up or for additional information on your first request, we would just need a clarification so we may consider it closed and just proceed with your initial request to include the PRDR Annual Report.
