Dear Maddie

We are in receipt of your request.
To enable the Council to process your request, I am writing to you to ask for clarification your request states " Provide me all documents, briefings, emails, communications from the to newly elected councillors following the Local Elections relating to them beginning their new role".
Could you please clarify if the request is relating to communications from or to newly elected Councillors?
In addition due to the significant amount of information and time which would be needed to collate this information are you able to specify which documents you specifically require in order to fulfil the request.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards
