Dear Sir or Madam,

Following on from my previous request,CS/08/0025/HJP, 'Proportion
of key employees that worked in local government' I would now like
to submit a supplementary FOI request to further clarify the
situation.

Excluding those who have previously worked in local government,
what proportion of the remaining 32% of investigators and 39% of
assistant ombudsmen have previously worked in a central government
department or an executive agency.

Yours faithfully,

A Johnson (Mrs)

Dear Mrs Johnson

Freedom of Information Act 2000

Your information request to the Local Government Ombudsman.

Thank you for your correspondence dated 29 August 2008 in which you make a complaint about the Local Government Ombudsman’s refusal to comply with your request for information. I apologise for the delay in responding but the Commissioner currently has a backlog of complaints.

Your case has been allocated to one of our case resolution teams who will contact you as soon as possible to explain how your case will be progressed. Due to the volume of complaints we are receiving at present it may be several months before you hear from us.

The Information Commissioners Office is an independent public body set up to promote public access to official information. We will rule on eligible complaints from people who are unhappy with the way public authorities have handled requests for information under The Freedom of Information Act 2000.

If you need to contact us about any aspect of your complaint about the Local Government Ombudsman please contact our Freedom of Information Helpline on 08456 306060, or 01625 545745 if you would prefer to call a 'national rate' number, being sure to quote the reference number at the top of this letter.

Yours sincerely,

Sent on behalf of

Mr Paul Arnold

Head of Customer Service
