Dear Hertsmere Borough Council,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Hertsmere Borough Council's handling of my FOI request 'Garage Site Development (Containers)- Crown Rd/ Cowley Hill / Gateshead Road'.

“A GS6 safety report has been completed for site workers. My question what safety reports have been done for residents living directly under & next to live powerline”

HBC reply - they do not hold that info

Why do they not hold that info?
They are ultimately liable for their residents safety & they are the applicants for this development ? If anyone should have completed a safety report it should be HBC!
