Richard Bailey

Information Commissioner Solicitor

Dear Mr Bailey

Three days ago, I asked you a specific question, how long has
Alex Ganotis worked for the ICO and when did he complete his Register of
Interest.

You are normally very prompt with your responses, but
this time you have not replied to my direct questions. I understand Mr
Ganotis has worked for both the ICO and Stockport Borough Council since 2008.

I also asked you how long you have known about this.

I also asked you a question about the ICO Register of
Interest for ICO officials.

May I take this opportunity is submitting another FOIA
request to the ICO. i.e How many Compromise Agreements have the ICO
entered into with Ex ICO Officials please?

For your information, action and files

Yours sincerely

ALan M Dransfield

Nice work if you can get it

Attn Mr Paul Arnold

Customer Service Manager

Dear Sir

Further to my earlier email today in which I confirmed my allegations of wrongdoing and maladministration by the ICO and gave you 3 demonstrable points of evidence.

I now wish to add a 4th piece of evidence which supports my allegations of misfeasance and criminal negligence by the ICO.

Please see the ICO minutes below which confirms the ICO staff have been allowed to claim expense for overseas travel without receipts (para3) for the last decade.

Such action flies in the face of transparency, accountability and security and it beggars belief that millions of pounds have been spent from the public purse in the last decade and are unaccountable.

Please be mindful that a recent Upper Tribunal upheld a vexatious exemption in which I was seeking ICO expenses information.

No wonder the ICO are throwing the kitchen sink at the Dransfield Vexatious BS because the ICO have their greedy snouts in the expenses gravy trough.

It is inconceivable that the UK Government department allows their employees to travel world-wide, wine and dine etc and are not required to reconcile the expenses via receipts.

It beggars belief.

I would argue that the ICO are in serious breach of Government fiscal accountability rules.

Yours etc

Dear Mr Bradshaw MP

It would appear the ICO are in complete meltdown and I
call upon my MP to write to the relevant authority and ask for an
explanation why:-

1.The ICO senior staff have failed to fill in a Register Of
Interests document?

2. Why the ICO staff are not
required to provide a receipt for their expenses?

……

For your information,action and files

Dear Madam

Please see the KBW Law firm
report on the Dransfield Vexatious claptrap. Any fair minded person would
agree that KBW appear to get most if not all of the ICO legal works which is a
breach of EU Trade Law.

This KBW report confirms my allegation that the ICO are in
meltdown.

Aarhus Convention

Dear Mr Bradshaw MP

I fervently do believe that the ICO and Devon CC have
consistently and wilfully breached the Aarhus Convention with this vexatious BS
under GIA/3037/2011 Dransfield v ICO.

I now call upon my MP to write to the appropriate
government department responsible for the Aarhus Convention with a view to
conducting an official inquiry.

With thanks

Yours sincerely

When will Richard Bailey of the ICO be sacked?

Information Commissioner Posted on Sun, May 01, 2016 07:23:00

Email sent –

Richard Bailey

Information Commissioner Solicitor

Dear Sir

It is fairly obvious that the ICO has neglected their
legal remit under the Aarhus Convention and please be advised that I have now
made an official complaint to UNECE.

The tangible evidence that the ICO have acted illegally
can be viewed at the ICO website and in particular the ICO decision notice
GIA/3037/2011!Dransfield v ICO.

There is demonstrable evidence on file that the ICO and
in particular Christopher Graham has acted willfully and illegally to prevent
the British general public’s access to environmental information regarding numerous issues from wind turbines energy,
PFI schools, lightning protection – the list is endless.

I put you on notice that I have now placed an official
complaint against the ICO and Christopher Graham and your good self who have
acted in bad faith to obstruct my access to the FOIA 2000 and EIR 2004.

For your information,action and files

Yours sincerely

Alan M Dransfield
