List of Council Housing

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Ashford Borough Council should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Ashford Borough Council,

Please supply a list (spreadsheet or similar is fine) of all council housing under your remit.

I request this on the basis that another council Welyn Hatfield Borough Council has already completed similar FOI request.
