Cost of lawyers in responding to FOI request IR2023/00434
Dear Post Office Limited,
An FOI request number IR2023/00434 was rejected on cost grounds in the initial response to that request, despite a Parliamentary Committee having being told that what I requested already existed as a ‘specific piece of work’.
I request information regarding the cost to date of lawyers in dealing with this case, including the cost of any third party lawyers.
Yours faithfully,
Tim Bush
Our ref: FOI2023/00609
