Dear Mr Nunn,

Further to your Freedom of Information request received by Braintree
District Council, I write to advise that the Council holds the following
information in respect of your request:

There have been no cases in the past five years where the Local Ombudsman
has drawn the Council's attention to any instance where his investigation
has been impeded or hindered as a result of the conduct of either an
Officer or a Member.

If you disagree with the Council's decision in respect of your freedom of
information request or are otherwise unhappy with how the Council has
dealt with your request in the first instance you may approach Sharon
Lowe, Head of Law & Governance in writing at the following address:-

Braintree District Council, Law & Governance, Causeway House, Bocking End,
Braintree, Essex, CM7 9HB

Should you remain dissatisfied with the outcome you have a right of appeal
under S50 of the Freedom of Information Act to appeal against the decision
by contacting the Information Commissioner, Wycliffe House, Water Lane,
Wilmslow SK9 5AF, [1][email address].

Yours sincerely

Emma Wisbey
Governance Lawyer
Ext: 2610
