Sorry for addressing you by the wrong name below. I have actually just
passed your request to an officer called Cathy which is why I got the name

Dear Ms Graham,
Thank you for your response which I appreciate a lot.
However, would it be at all possible for just a little more detail
as this would really help me in this instance.
In particular, just for numbers 3 and 4 above, i.e, the length of
service. Could this be paired down to the nearest year? Then the
ages be identified - even without months for this?
I know you must be very busy but I would really appreciate this and
would be very grateful.
Yours sincerely,
Catherine MacArthur

Dear Sir or Madam,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of
Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Sutton Borough
Council's handling of my FOI request 'How many compromise
agreements have been signed by teachers and Head teachers with a
result of these members of staff losing or leaving their jobs since
Sep 2004.'.
This request is a duplication of my informal reply on 2nd December.
I think that make a formal Request for an Internal Review makes it
clearer.
I would like your response to be more detailed as this would really
help.
In particular, just for numbers 3 and 4, i.e, the length of
service. Could this be paired down to the nearest year and the ages
given - to the nearest year if this is less time consuming for
yourselves.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is
available on the Internet at this address:

Dear Ms MacArthur,
I acknowledge receipt of your email requesting an internal Review of your request.
I have read the correspondence between yourself and our officer and would like to confirm we will not be putting your request through our internal reviews process.
You requested a further breakdown of the answers we provided you with. I can confirm we are dealing with your request and you will be provided with this information before Friday 18th December 09.
I trust this satisfies why we will not be undertaking an internal review.
Kind Regards
Natalie
