Dear Mr Nunn

I am writing in respect of your enquiry for information held by this
Authority received on 12 October 2009 and to confirm that we have
completed the search for the information that you requested.

I can confirm that during the last five years the Council has not served
any Local Government Act Part III Section 32(3) notices on the Local
Government Omubudsman. The Ombudsman has not found the Council guilty
of maladministration for misusing a Section 32(3) notice.

If you have any queries about this email, please contact me.

I hope you find the information enclosed useful but if, for whatever
reason, you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation
to your request and wish to make a complaint or request a review of our
decision, you are entitled to pursue any dissatisfaction through the
Council's Complaints Procedure.

If you are not content with the outcome of your complaint, you may apply
directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally, the
ICO cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the complaints
procedure provided by the Council. The Information Commissioner can be
contacted at: The Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House,
Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF.

Yours sincerely
