Dear Louise and Sue Wellbeing Care and Learning FOI,

Thank you very much for the release of this report in response to the FOI request. Many thanks

Yours sincerely,

Dear Sue/Louise Wellbeing Care and Learning FOI,

Just for completeness may I ask for brief reason for the redactions and what sections of the Act they were under.
Thanks for your efforts once again

Yours sincerely,

Dear Rebecca

The schools involved were never named or made public so any names of teachers have been removed so that links to the schools cannot be made. The names were redacted under Section 40 of the FOI Act as it relates to personal information. Whilst the teachers themselves confidentially may not necessarily be assumed it would be possible to utilise this information to identify the schools and as a result potentially the children involved.

Dear Sara Wellbeing Care and Learning FOI,

40 (2) is not sufficient, you have to then go on a stage

Dear Newcastle upon Tyne City Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Newcastle upon Tyne City Council's handling of my FOI request 'Report of the independent inquiry into multiple abuse in nursery classes in Newcastle upon Tyne. Newcastle upon Tyne County Council. Hunt, P. (1994)'.

The issues I wish reviewing are the terms of redaction, the sections of the law given appear to be not precise enough.
The reasons given appear also to be not in line with the law

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/r...
