Dear Carmarthenshire Council,

Please provide me details of all expenditure incurred whilst seeking advice concerning the Chief Executive's former pension arrangements.

Dear Mr. Tillman,

Thanks for taking a moment to write to me.

I'm disappointed that you are unable to provide me with a meaningful indication of when you might comply with your statutory obligations. "As soon as practicably possible" could, with respect, mean in the morning or three months from now.

Since you state you are finalising a response, I will expect to hear from you in the next few days.

Kind Regards,

Martin Milan.
