These responses are unsatisfactory and the copies of documents highly suspect. Far these reasons an internal review is requested.

Dear FOI,

Your response is unsatisfactory as it is evasive. The copy of the
insurance document appears not to be genuine.
You are requested to provide an opportunity to examine the original
of this as also the AA 'report document'

Yours sincerely,

a smudged wording AA top left corner. AS information it is absolute
useless. Please now supply the information requested.

Dear FOI,
To refuse to provide information as requested indicates that your
benighted council, now claiming that the request is 'vexatious', is
unable to argue a cogent case for refusal.
This is typical of a council which has a culture of dishonesty led
by a CE who has been shown to be less than truthful. This is not
good enough.
