Dear Lynne Strawford,

I wrote to RDC on the 4th January requesting data on allotment
waiting lists (see below). I haven't yet had a respose to this,
even though by law, the authority should normally have responded
promptly and by 1 February 2010. I would be very grateful if you
could follow this up.

My request was as follows:
"1) How many allotment sites are there in the council area for
which the Council has access to waiting list data?

2) What is the total number of plots on these sites?

3) What is the total number of people on waiting lists for these
sites?

4) Are any of these waiting lists closed to further applications?

5) How many new council allotment sites were brought into use in
2009? Please give:
a) number of new sites
b) names of new sites
c) total area of new land in hectares
d) total number of new plots"

Many thanks,

Margaret Campbell

Dear Mrs Campbell

Thank you for your request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 with

I apologise for the delay in response but the original request was
forwarded to your local Parish Council as they hold the responsibility for
allotments and would be able to provide you with the information
requested. Rochford District Council do not own any allotments.

Kind regards
