In principle, Elizabeth is right in saying: > So - in my frightened opinion - YES to post-its, YES to phone > messages, YES > to hand-written notes on a scribble pad, YES to emails, YES > to electronic > diaries etc etc. but I suppose it is only reasonable to point out that the risk of being "caught out" by failure to disclose some of these - notably post-its - must usually be low, so it would be inappropriate to devote inordinate resource to ensuring they can be found and disclosed. Is this a special case of a wider principle, namely that in most cases public bodies will rarely be challenged if they provide an incomplete response (i.e. if they fail to find some or all information covered by a request)? I have in mind that it will only be in rare circumstances that an enquirer can be confident that the body's request is incomplete...
