Thanks Peter, I suppose it will depend on the way each organisation keeps the data (I have made the request to a number of different places) but I though it might make for interesting comparison.

The release - Appendix A - appears to contain severely truncated text.
It is also 'lacking' the reference numbers of these requests; which would of course be useful for reference.

I don't think they'll be able to tell you whether they come from media/private individual, as the person making the request is not obliged to say. I make regular requests as an individual, but I often forward their responses to journalists.
