2015 meeting with Legal and General (L+G)

The request was partially successful.

Dear Bristol City Council,

In a recent article in the Bristol Post it was revealed that Legal and General had first approached the Council in 2015 regarding a partnership between the two:

"Meanwhile, in a twist to the saga, the top official at L&G spearheading the partnership with the local authority admitted publicly that the company has been in talks with the council since 2015 — years earlier than previously known."

I wish to know the following:

- Please confirm which Officers, Councillors, consultants at the Council were approached by Legal and General in 2015.

- What was the total cost to Bristol City Council for the meeting.

- Please provide the agenda/aims of this meeting, details of who attended the meeting along with a full copy of the minutes and action log.

- Any materials (such reports,brochures,presentations ect..) provided to Bristol City Council by Legal and General in 2015

Yours faithfully,

Joseph Lloyd

Bristol City Council

Dear Bristol City Council,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Bristol City Council's handling of my FOI request '2015 meeting with Legal and General (L+G)'

The emails contain many redactions with some emails are redacted entirely. All this despite the fact that these emails are over five years old.

I ask you to reassess all of the redactions made to the information I requested.

Yours sincerely,

Joseph Lloyd

Bristol City Council
