Dear High Speed Two (HS2) Limited,

Can I have the reports on completed fraud cases, by the HS2 Internal Fraud Unit ,

Dear FOI Request,

In your last response you state 'You have requested for all documents regarding the HS2 Internal Fraud Unit', this is incorrect as the clarification on Dec 20th stated :

As a clarification can I request any documents regarding the HS2 Internal Fraud Unit.
If this is a burden then can I have first :-
a) HS2 Internal Fraud Unit Reports
b) Any other HS2 Internal Fraud Unit documents

Reports are not all documents, but summaries of investigations.
So if further clarification is needed:
a) Can I have the summary reports on the HS2 Internal Fraud unit investigations.
b) If that becomes burdensome, can you further refine to start with fraud / whistleblower
investigation within HS2 Ltd.

Yours sincerely,

Mike Haville

Dear FOI Request,

You have twice offered the 2023 synopsis & I have twice replied with clarifications of what I am requesting.

You have ignored those clarification and returned to the synopsis.

So once again :

Can I request :

a) The summary reports on the HS2 Internal Fraud unit investigations.

b) If that becomes burdensome, can you further refine to start with fraud / whistleblower
investigation within HS2 Ltd.

If the above is not forthcoming, can I ask for an internal review so that I can go to ICO.

Yours sincerely,

Mike Haville

Dear FOI Request,

My apologies for not being clear, I will try a different route.

b) Can I have the HS2 Ltd investigation reports on the whistleblowers Doug Thornton, Andrew Bruce, Stephen Cresswell & the HS2 Personal assistant mentioned in the Sunday Times article (linked below)
