Dear Mr Eastwood
I refer to your email.  A request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 must include an address for correspondence.  This is required by S.8(1)b.  Could you therefore please supply a postal address, even if you require a response by email.  I cannot progress your request until I receive this information.

Subject: Freedom of Information request - Amounts paid to Common Purpose
and similar organisations

     Dear Sir or Madam, It has come to my attention that an organisation
     known as Common Purpose, and registered as a charity, holds courses
     for which charges are made. Several Local Authorities and Police
     Authorities have been accused of making payments using taxpayers
     money to send officials on such courses. I require to know whether
     Rother District Council has made any payments to Common Purpose, or
     to any organisation associated with it, and the amounts involved, for
     each year since 2000.

     Yours faithfully, A N Eastwood
