Audit context

What the response says and how it was assessed

Response says

Partly agrees about historical information access and describes the new website.

Audit analysis

Agency Finding 2 uniquely supplies the website subject rather than matching the jury’s number. It identifies historical in-person access and a current site with documents, maps and contact details, but does not explain what part of the jury’s past-lack/current-improvement finding is disputed.
