To whom it may concern,
I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information from your organisation:
1) How many complaints relating to housing has your organisation received in the past five years (January 2016 to present)? How many of these cases are ongoing? [Please could you provide the data for each year e.g. 2016 “X” number of complaints, 2017 “X” number of complaints.]
2) How many staff members do you have working as part of your complaints resolution team or equivalent team?

My preferred format for this data is CSV format.
