[...] Deepening moats has been a lively topic in UK politics recently. One British MP expensed the public for the cost of deepening the moat at his castle and has been forced to resign. We discussed FOI and the MP expense scandal recently. [...]

If you need the correct email address for Roger Helmer’s assistant, please email at robertsbobbi@hotmail.com – my email address is a throwaway, so it doesn’t matter if it stays here

I hope this wasn’t inappropriate, but Roger Helmer MEP did an article in a UK magazine that I happened to read, so I emailed him asking if he had seen the debate over at Climate Audit about the withholding of emails between Mitchell and the IPCC.

I have just received the following response

Roger is proposing to table the question below to the Commission/relevant UK Ministers regarding the exchange of emails between the Hadley Centre and the IPCC, which the Met Office have refused to make public.
However, before he does so he just wanted to double-check that he correctly understands the situation. Would you therefore kindly look over the proposed text to make sure that you are comfortable with it?

Many thanks and best regards,

Georgina Browes
Political Advisor to Roger Helmer MEP

Re: Withholding of information regarding correspondence between the Hadley Centre and the IPCC

Is the Minister/Commission aware of correspondence on climate issues between Dr. John Mitchell, Chief Scientist of the Hadley Centre, and the IPCC?

Is the Minister/Commission aware that the Met Office appears to be resisting requests, under the Freedom of Information Act, for copies of this correspondence? For more information, please use the following link: http://www.climateaudit.org/?p=3208

What action can the Minister/Commission take to ensure that this important correspondence, of great public interest, is published in a timely way?

I hope that was ok
