Dear East Devon District Council,
You have not answered my questions as follows;-
1 I asked for the details of Funding sources and the relevant amounts; you have given me only the construction cost.
2 I asked for any restrictions placed on EDDC council by any funders regarding any future disposal of the building.
Yours faithfully,
R Thurlow
