Dear Mrs Oliver,

I am writing in response to your request for information below (ref 2626).

There is no `right' to ask questions at Council meetings; however
questions can be allowed at the Council's discretion. There is one
specific subject on which your questions have been found to be vexatious
and full reasons for that were given to you in the Council's letter of 11
Feb 2009. Questions on other topics are accepted and answered as
appropriate.

If you are unhappy with the way we have handled your request you are
entitled to ask for an internal review. Any internal review will be
carried out by a senior member of staff who was not involved with your
original request. To ask for an internal review, contact
[1][email address] in the first instance.

If you are unhappy with the outcome of any internal review, you are
entitled to complain to the Information Commissioner. To do so, contact:

Information Commissioner's Office
