I am writing to request under the Freedom of Information Act for copies of receipts for expenses claims made by the Chief Constable for the last four years.

More specifically, I am requesting the following information:

• For financial year 2008/09, the total sum claimed in expenses by the Chief Constable, and a copy of all submitted receipts for the same year.
• For financial year 2007/08, the total sum claimed in expenses by the Chief Constable, and a copy of all submitted receipts for the same year.

• For financial year 2005/06, the total sum claimed in expenses by the Chief Constable, and a copy of all submitted receipts for the same year.

I am happy for personal information to be redacted from the receipts, such as bank details, or personal addresses or telephone numbers, but request all other information be left visible on the copies.
