Dear Ms Blu,
Freedom of Information Act 2000
I am writing to ask you to clarify your request. This is because we need
further details from you in order to identify and locate the correct
information.
In questions 3, 7 and 9 you have requested information concerning
accommodation placements in Luton. Can you please clarify whether you are
looking for information about Luton specifically, or if it is just "out of
county" placements made by Warwickshire County Council in general that you
require.
I will not be able to take this matter further without this extra
information from you. Please let me know by 15/09/2017.
If I do not hear from you within the timeframe provided, I shall take it
that you do not wish to pursue this request and will consider the request
closed.
