Dear Bristol City Council,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Bristol City Council's handling of my FOI request 'Missing documents - 23/01990/M | Reserved Matters | Former School Site New Fosseway Road'.
Here are my reasons:
I requested the following documents in respect of planning application 23/01990/M:
"Please provide copies of the documents listed below:
1. JBA_22-453_ECO01_New Fosseway_Hengrove_Ecology Walkover RevA &JBA_22-453_ECO04_New Fosseway_Hengrove_Ecology Walkover 2023 received 27 June 2023

4. JBA22_453_ECO03_New Fosseway_Ecology Chapter for CEMP received 27 June 2023
5. JBA22_453_ECO05_New Fosseway_ LEMP RevA received 20 September 2023 (this does not appear to be the same document as the LEMP referenced below – Ref. JBA 22/282)
6. JBA22_453_ECO04_New Fosseway_ Ecological Enhancement Strategy received 27 June 2023
7. AR 03 New Fosseway Tree Calculations received 27 June 2023
8. 22/453 TPP Rev C (1 & 2 of 2) - referenced in 23_01990_M-TREE_CALCULATIONS-3601808
Documents referenced in the Landscape and Ecological Management Plan (LEMP) – June 2023 – Ref. JBA 22/282:
9. Schematic Design – Legend & Planting Schedule (McGregor Coxall, 2023)
10. Schematic Design Landscaping (McGregor Coxall, 2023)
11. Ecological Mitigation and Enhancement Strategy (JBA, 2023)
12. Update Ecological Walkover Survey Report (JBA, 2023)
13. Planning Layout (PAD Design Ltd., 2023)
14. Updated Biodiversity Net Gain Assessment (JBA, 2023)
15. Biodiversity Net Gain Assessment (WSP, 2022)
16. Ecological Impact Assessment Report (WSP, 2022) and the updated by James Blake Associates (JBA) in 2023 (para. 1.2.3)

If not part of the above missing documents:
20. Habitat maps showing the baseline and post-development habitats identified on the site."
We accept that certain documents where published on the planning portal and acknowledged this when we wrote on 14 February, "We note that the these published documents were all authored by Angelo Calabrese, the case officer on 02 February 2024:
1. 23_01990_M-TREE_OFFICER_COMMENTS-3615107 - dated 11.01.23 & 23.01.24.
2. 23_01990_M-ECOLOGY_COMMENTS-3615241 - dated 21.00.23.
3. 23_01990_M--3615239 - dated 21.00.23.
4. 23_01990_M-SUSTAINABLE_CITY_OFFICER-3615243 - undated.
This is not what we have requested. We expect to see all the officers' actual reports, not these post-dated extracts."
However, this is all that has been published. These are not the documents requested. Accordingly, you have failed to comply with your obligation of disclosure or to give any reason why you have not done so.

Dear Bristol City Council,
Whilst internal reviews should be responded to within a maximum of 40 working days after you receive the complaint - 19 February, it is considered a matter of best practice by the ICO that, in most cases, you should aim to complete the review within 20 working days.
I urge you to expedite this matter, given the the substance of my request has not changed at all since I first made it on 03 February last.
Yours sincerely,
Mark CD Ashdown

be completed, but it remains a priority and will be with you as soon as
possible.
