Dear Mr White

Please accept my apologies for the delay in replying. I have passed on your enquiry to the relevant staff and have been provided with the following information:

From 1 September 2004 to 31 August 2009 for Change of Use Applications (Statutory class Q20):

1) We have had 56 applications where the proposal was to change the use from A1 shop.
2) Two of these were respective.
3) We have had no change of use applications from A1 from Starbucks or their representatives.
4) See answer to question 3.

This would appear to conclude your enquiry satisfactorily. If you have any concerns in respect of our response to your information request, please contact me again.

If you are not satisfied with the response, you may write to the Legal Services Manager at West Dorset District Council, Stratton House, 58-60 High West Street, Dorchester, Dorset DT1 1UZ or complete the on-line complaint form that can be found at www.dorsetforyou.com. If after this you are still not satisfied, you may write to the Chief Executive at the above address. If your complaint is not resolved to your complete satisfaction, you have the right to apply to the Information Commissioner for a decision.

Once again I apologise for the delay in responding to your enquiry.

Yours sincerely
