Dear Irvine Looms,
 
Thank you for your email. Please can you clarify what you are referring
to. We have reviewed the document sent to you and cannot see any reference
to a device being valued at £1. 
 
There is a value of £2 and £7 under 'damaged laptops', which are the
lowest valued items on the spreadsheet sent to you. 
 
Please can you clarify what you are referring to.
 
Yours sincerely,

Information Rights Team
Newham Council
