Dear Mr Allen,
I am writing to provide you with an update in relation to your request for information. We have located the documents requested however they do need to be checked to establish whether any redactions need to be made, therefore it is unlikely that we will be able to send you the information by 27th July as per my last email.
I hope to be able to send the documents to you by the end of next week, however I will contact you again should this not be the case. I am sorry for the delays you have experienced and thank you for your continued patience.

Dear Central Bedfordshire Council,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Central Bedfordshire Council's handling of my FOI request 'CBC Task Force Member Group'.
Firstly,I am aware that residents in other parts of Central Bedfordshire have asked for and obtained information about the Task Force. I consider this information should be supplied under your publication scheme and request that you send it forthwith - noting that you seriously delayed your response.
Secondly, I requested copies of agendas and minutes of the Task Force and the Placemaking Group to date. You have only sent agendas and minutes of the Placemaking Group up to and including January 2012. I am seeking the missing documents to be sent as a matter of urgency - again noting that you seriously delayed your response.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address:

Yours faithfully,
Stephen Allen
