Dear Sir or Madam,
During the last five years how many times has the Local Government

District Council) brought to the attention of the council the fact
that a member of Mendip District Council staff had misled them,
lied to them or done anything else to hinder their investigation.
If they have what disciplinary action was taken against the
individual(s) concerned by the council.
Yours faithfully,
Trevor R Nunn

Dear customerservices,
Internal review requested.
You have all the information you need. If in doubt please refer to
ICO guidance on this issue. You have my preferred method of contact
and address as proven by your recent request for more details.
For your information, section 8.1.b of the FOI Act asks for an
"address for correspondence", and the email address I have used is
sufficient.
The Ministry of Justice has guidance on this – "As well as hard
copy written correspondence, requests that are transmitted
electronically (for example, in emails) are acceptable ... If a
request is received by email and no postal address is given, the
email address should be treated as the return address."
The Information Commissioner's Hints for Practitioners say "Any
correspondence could include a request for information. If it is
written (this includes e-mail), legible, gives the name of the
applicant, an address for reply (which could be electronic), and
includes a description of the information required, then it will
fall within the scope of the legislation."
Yours sincerely,
Trevor R Nunn
