Dear Mr Nash

Further to your request, please find attached a list of commercial
properties in Barnet that are currently empty.

- As I don't know what you would consider to be "long-term empty", the
list is of all property that is currently empty but shows the start date
of the empty period so that you may select on that basis.

- The list only contains properties that are owned by non-individuals.
This is in accordance with the Information Tribunal decision in the
Bexley Council case, regarding the disclosure of addresses and owners of
empty properties owned by individuals.
