Dear Liverpool City Council,

Yours sincerely,

Dear Liverpool City Council,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Liverpool City Council's handling of my FOI request 'Rental Stream From Kings Construction / Rental Stream From Advertising'.
[ GIVE DETAILS ABOUT YOUR COMPLAINT HERE ]
I note that many FOIs [sometimes quite complex] have been responded to within days or weeks, and yet this FOI request should have been answered by the 6th January. Please investigate why LCC seem to pick and choose who they respond to in a timely fashion. There seems to be no logic in LCC's procedures. Responses do not seem to be predicated on the dates the requests are sent, nor on the complexity of the request.
I am sending a copy of all my outstanding FOI's to the City Solicitor.
I would appreciate a response to this FOI as soon as possible.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/r...
Yours faithfully,
Josie Mullen
Dear Liverpool City Council,
Yet another Internal Review ignored. Could I have a response as soon as possible. Max Caller should have investigated LCC's totally dysfunctional FOI response system........and there is still a chance that this could happen !!!
Yours sincerely,
Josie Mullen
Dear Liverpool City Council,
Now 5 months since I put in this Internal Review.....a response please
Yours sincerely,
Josie Mullen

The rental income came from the same back-of-a-fag-packet as the mobile phone mast money, and the training academy.
As did most of the other "valuations" used to justify flogging off the City's assets to friends and family at car boot prices.
Shops for a pound, terraced streets for a pound, tracts of Liverpool land for a pound - public property gifted to pals and their private companies, under the brown noses of elected officials and well paid public servants.
Complicit and crony, honest and phoney - Rome has burned to the ground while you all fiddled.
