Dear Allen, Sue,
Sorry about the mistake in my FOI request. I had just submitted a
Freedom of Information request to Barking and thought I would save
time copying and pasting the request and just changing the name of
the council. It would appear that I inadvertently left Barking in
part of the request when I typed in the name of your council. Sorry
about that.
Yours sincerely,
Yours sincerely,
Trevor R Nunn

them direct.
