Dear Alan Harvey Flounders,

Your request 'Requesting a Internal Review' at
http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/requesting_a_internal_review
has been reviewed by moderators.

We consider it is not a valid FOI request, and have therefore hidden it from other users. We reached this because the dominant purpose of your correspondence appears to be to pursue a grievance rather than to obtain recorded information. I also consider that the content of your request is potentially defamatory. I found in places that your request difficult to follow which suggested there was a lack of focus.

A few weeks ago I hid a similar request you had made to the same authority for similar reasons - I am sorry for the delay in writing to you about this earlier request. to you about this earlier request.
Please read our policy on focussed requests:
                                            http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/help/requesting#focused

You will still be able to view both requests while logged in to the site. Please reply to this email if you would like to discuss these decisions further.
Yours, The WhatDoTheyKnow team.

Dear Sirs, 
Thank you for your belated explanation received on Tuesday 4th December 2012, on why my latest F.O.I. requests to Hartlepool Borough Council have been removed from Public View. 
including my Latest Annotation highlighting the Comments from Peter Devlin, Chief Solicitor of Hartlepool Borough Council, including my Annotation challenging the outrageous behaviour by the three newly elected Councillors of the De-Brus Ward, Rob Cook, Chairman of the Planning Committee,
 Sylvia Tempest, Secretary of the Local Labour Party and Sheila Griffin, who are openly aiding and abetting Criminality, their Behaviour can only is described as Outrageous? 

It has Never been my intention to place your very valued and Helpful internet site in a position that any F.O.I. requests or views expressed , could result in any Legal Challenge to your site, and to that end I deliberately have set up my own Blog, 

                                                   http://alanflounders.blogspot.co.uk/ 

Where I intend to Continue to publish and expose to Public View the Undoubted Corruption I have personally discovered,  is regularly committed by some Officials of Hartlepool Borough Council, ? Both elected and non elected ? 
If they can Challenge my Allegations, Why don't they Sue Me. ? 

“CORRUPTION hurts people all over the world every day. Victims of corruption need to speak up to Challenge people who are  unfit to occupy Any Public Office. 

Could it be that undue influence has been brought to bear by Hartlepool Borough Council to suppress the matter? Some may think so, when one considers that your  e-mail only arrived on Tuesday 4th December 2012, “After” my latest F.O.I. request was submitted to Hartlepool Borough Council 

                                                        I am a Victim. 

CORRUPTION is the abuse of entrusted power for private gain. It hurts everyone who depends on the integrity of people in a position of authority. 

I can Honestly Say that I am NOT only very Disappointed but Deeply Saddened 
By your decision, to hide from Public View the questions in my Freedom of Information Requests , Dated 13th November 2012, to Haley Martin, in which I had named Public Officials, employed in both the Legal and Planning departments of Hartlepool Borough Council of Questionable and Dishonest Behaviour, 

I intend to Publish on this Site , everyone of my Freedom of Information Requests which have been removed  from Public View by the WhatDoTheyKnow Team,  including my Annotations.


Hartlepool Borough Council have continued to Lie and Refuse to Release Fraudulent Documents to me, regarding the Legal Ownership of Property built on without Council Planning Permission , but More importantly, Without , the Legal Property Owners Consent “ME” . When Granting the “Retrospective Planning Application” H/2009/0568 by the Case Planning Officer, Richard Trow, who I discovered and Believe was the Architect personally responsible for the Redesign of the Kitchen Extension, and who it is known  to have been the Draughtsman, of the Engineers Drawings which were Submitted to “HIMSELF” the Case Planning Officer, Who Would have the Delegated Authority to Decide Whether to Grant this Controversial Retrospective Planning application H/2009/0568 or NOT,? without any Input or involvement by any Elected Councillors of the Planning Committee?
 It's very similar situation,  to marking your own Examination Papers, you just can’t Loose ? or can you? wait and See. 
Thanks again for all your help in the Past , best sincere wishes to you all..
