Good Afternoon,

Thank you for your enquiry below, apologies for the delay in replying to
you.  Because of the way our system (excluding Councillors) records
complaint cases, we would have to search on each case and then extract the
information to see what nature of complaint it was.

Officers are reviewing how long the rest of your request would take to
facilitate and we will be able to send you a full response or reason for
refusal next week. 

Kind Regards

Jane Corrin
