Specifically, you have requested the following information:

Please provide:

1, The names of all other attendees at this dinner.

attendance as a guest speaker. The Assistant Chief Executive Elaine

Regeneration and Economic Recovery had to step down last minute.

As this was not a council led meeting and guests in attendance were not
the Councils guests, they were invited by Terrapin Group, the personal
details of other attendees are defined as personal data under the General
