Dear Info (Web Page Address),
My request was for "the discussion which resulted in the decision to deny funding to the Shakespeare schools event..."
By this I meant the transcript of the meeting or meetings in which this proposal was discussed - what people said in their own words - rather than the written record of the process, which was supplied.
Yours sincerely,
Jonothan Cullinane
