Dear Ms Mayall

Request for information

In response to your email of 21 April, I can only apologise for this additional error. I'm afraid this was simply a typing error, in transferring the figures from an excel spreadsheet to the word document included with as part of the letter I sent you in March (our ref: CS/10/009). I now attach an amended version with the correct figures in it for 2006/07. The total figure for 2008/09 is £1 out - this is due to rounding, because we have shown the figures in whole pounds and not included pence.

That concludes my response. If you feel I have not dealt properly with your request, you have the right to appeal and, should you wish to do so, I can supply a copy our internal complaints procedure. If you do request an internal review - can you please indicate why you are unhappy with my response. You also have the right to apply to the Information Commissioner to determine

whether your request has been properly dealt with. You should note however that the Commissioner will not consider any complaint where you have not first exhausted our internal complaints process or where there has been undue delay in contacting him. You will be able to obtain further details of the Information Commissioner's role from the website on www.ico.gov.uk.

Yours sincerely

Hilary Pook

Communications and Records Manager

Tony Redmond's expenses since his appointment in 2001

* Mr Redmond took up his appointment in November 2001, so these expenses only cover the period November 2001 - March 2002

^# This covers the period April 2009 - January 2010

** “Other travel” can include train fares, taxi fares, plane fares, and hire cars. Train tickets are often purchased in advance by the Commission and therefore are not paid for by the person travelling and then claimed back, but the cost is still included in these figures.
