Helen Briggs Returning Officer, Rutland County Council, Disregard for Confidentiality,
Named Election Communications, Stored In Unsecured Public Area.



Thousands of letters addressed to the Rutland Electorate are sitting in a public area unattended.

A member of staff said they were not council tax bills, "they are election communications"

The Council had placed a green screen in front of the Royal Mail cages, but none around
the back or sides.

Anyone could have popped in of the street and stole the letters or made records
of the intended recipients names and address.

I wonder why Mrs Briggs did not store them in the secure part of the building?
