Dear Thanet District Council,

Could you tell me how many Tree Preservation Orders are currently administered by the Council?

Could you tell me the date when the oldest TPO currently still valid was served?

Yours faithfully,

Dear Thanet District Council,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Thanet District Council's handling of my FOI request 'Number of Tree Preservation Orders administered by the council'.

Providing a link to a mapping online system does not answer my question - I requested the number of TPOs, not access to a map - could you please revisit this query.

With regards to the oldest TPO you do hold this information, as I have an excel spreadsheet dated 2009 provided by you in 2016 that shows all your TPOs at that time. The oldest then was served in 1956 and apparently confirmed in 1957. The question really is, is this TPO still in existence or been revoked and if revoked when is the next oldest one that is still valid?

Yours faithfully,
