Dear Mr Rossiter

I am still waiting for the two documents I requested on May 21st, 2024. These documents can easily be located in council systems. I am not aware of any reason why there would be a 10 day delay.

You advised on 27th May that you were following this up.

May I please have an update.

Yours sincerely,

Alan Waller
