Dear Donna Muirhead,

The origional request was sent on the 12 June I added for clarity the additional information on 17 June, but you are fully aware seasearch is part of MCS. I was just stating that it should be included in your reply if they have recieved any funds from CCW at all.

I will await your reply by the 17th July if the information of how public funds are spent is not an easy request to answer before then.

Yours sincerely,

Claire Russell Griffiths

Dear Donna Muirhead,

CCW have been funding seasearch since at least 2004 but you have only given figures since 2007.

Has MCS only had the one grant in 2009 ever from CCW just to ensure all information is given.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Claire,

In your first request to CCW, you asked us to provide you details of grant funding to MCS, I assumed that you wanted MCS grant figures relating to MCZ work. Please can you clarify that this is the case or do you actually need amounts for all other grants (if any) awarded to MCS since 2009?

In relation to Seasearch please can you clarify what figures you are requesting. None of the grants previously awarded to Seasearch were awarded for MCZ work but we included the figures because you specifically requested this.

Kind Regards
Donna

The request, as it stands is not specific enough for us to identify the information clearly and in order for us to deal with your request we need further clarification.

You Requested to know "how much have they had in total ever off CCW" They being MCS and Seasearch.

CCW does not hold all records of all grant "ever" awarded to MCS and Seasearch, however we may hold some information on our systems or archives dating back to 2004?

Please can confirm that you would like us to proceed.

Your request was received on 19 July. The time taken to clarify your request is in addition to the 20 day response limit.

Once we have received your clarification we will process your request.

Regards
Donna

Dear Donna Muirhead,

It is of great concern to hear that you do not hold records of how public funds are spent. This is a matter that may have to be acted upon by another authority.

However if you could just give me the information of how much funding CCW has granted, that you do currently hold, then this would be a start.

I hereby request a breakdown of any funding that has been granted by CCW to Marine Conservation Society.

I also request a breakdown of any funding that has been granted by CCW to Seasearch.

Yours sincerely,

Claire Russell Griffiths
