Dear Mr Keppel-Green,

Thank you for your email & for bringing to my attention that some of the
information was missing. Please accept my apologies for this oversight, it
is unclear why this information was not provided.

The following information has now been provided by the Elections Team:

“We do not have all out elections. Parishes are elected in halves.
Therefore, for 2023 the elections results can be found at
 [1]https://www.eppingforestdc.gov.uk/parish...
and 2021 can be found at

You have also requested an internal review in addition to the missing
