Board recruitment documents

Dear Mr Jackson

Request for information

Thank you for your e-mail dated 10th November 2009, requesting Ordnance
Survey to provide various documents relating to the recruitment process
for the Board of Directors of the Ordnance Survey and following questions:

Please could you:

1. Send me copies of any job adverts for positions on the board

published in the last five years. If this is too expensive a task

to be permissible under the FOIA, please restrict the inquiry to

the last six months.

2. Tell me whether the Shareholder Executive, and or specific

ministers are formally asked to approve of new board members.

3. Send me copies of any internal documents describing the process

used to make new board appointments.

Please note that Ordnance Survey is considering your request under the
Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). As your request was received by us
on 10th November 2009 we will provide you with a full response within 20
working days as required by the FOIA, meaning by 8^th December 2009.

Yours sincerely
