Valuation

The request was refused by Valuation Office Agency.

Dear Valuation Office Agency,

I write to request an FOI all information that the VOA as district valuer for Glasgow city council had at hand for providing a service and valuation for a plot of land in the east end of Glasgow in or around 2006-7.

The plot of land was named Westhorn, Westthorn or Westhhorn. It was approximately 13.4 acres in size.

I also request a copy of the geo technical report that was used to assess any abnormals that the land contained.

Yours faithfully,

John Smith

Dear Valuation Office Agency,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Valuation Office Agency's handling of my FOI request 'Valuation'.

I believe this information should be in the public domain given the huge interest in the sale of the land and the implications that the land was sold under the true value. In fact much of the information is in the public domain but conformation from VOA and the release of the Geo technical report should be released.

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

Yours faithfully,

John Smith
