Dear Mr Burton,
Thank you for your email. At this time we are unable to accept your
request for an internal review due to the delay in responding. I note from
our records that your request was due for a response on 3 June. Whilst we
appreciate that we have failed to meet this deadline as you are no doubt
aware the council is currently managing the covid-19 situation and as such
response times to FOI requests may be delayed.
Please accept our apologies for the delay in responding.
Kind regards
Michael Cook

Dear foi,
Thank you for the update. I appreciate the additional demands caused by COVID-19. Nevertheless, the request relates to "essential works" which are underway during lockdown and so I would appreciate a timely response.
