Dear Thomas Coward

 

Reference number: EIR/ENV/10/18/16407

 

Thank you for your correspondence of the 17^th October 2018 requesting the
following information:

 

“The use of road below refers to regarding High Leigh Garden Village
Development and Dinant link Road in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire.

 

It is known that you have given permissions to Lands Improvement Holdings
to close roads in your County.

 

Therefore, please could you provide the agreement(s), contract(s),
letter(s), email(s) or other data sources where you explicitly agree to
allow Lands Improvement Holdings to close the road between 8 am till 5 pm
numerous times this year (2018).”

 

You made your request under the Freedom of Information Act, but as your
request concerns information that we feel falls within the definition of
Environmental Information and therefore it is more appropriate to respond
to it as an EIR request.  An explanation of Environmental Information
Regulations and your rights to information under it is available on the
Information Commissioner’s website at [1]https://ico.org.uk/ We will
respond to your request as quickly as possible, and by close of 13^th
November 2018 at the latest.

 

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, quoting
the reference number above.

                              

Yours sincerely,

Dear Hertfordshire County Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Hertfordshire County Council's handling of my FOI request 'Lands Improvement Holdings Permissions'.

It is likely this information exists and is held by Hertfordshire County Council, specifically within Hertfordshire County Highways. Please do not conceal this information.

Should no resolution be found regarding this I anticipate a complaint with the ICO shall be filed.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/l...

Yours faithfully,

Thomas Coward

Dear Hertfordshire County Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Hertfordshire County Council's handling of my FOI request 'Lands Improvement Holdings Permissions'.

I am concerned by the level of redaction of information that you deem 'personal'. I contest that the emails of all Hertfordshire Council employees are in fact public information and must be released.

Could you additionally state if any documents were redacted in their entirety for the correspondence?

I contest any redaction of documents in their entirety and request that all and any correspondence is provided. Please could you state how many documents, emails or other correspondence have been redacted from this FOI request?

I would also request that you provide the minuets of any meetings regarding this. Though I understand I did not explicitly request minuets of meetings I believe it would fall into the scope of this request.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/l...

Yours faithfully,

Thomas Coward
