Dear Sir Alan,

I wish you well on your retirement and hope you have a long and happy one.
Sorry to bother you with this but South Tyneside Council have allowed a slipway cover to be built on the banks of the Tyne without planning permission. I write to you to confirm that what Emma Lewell-Buck is saying is correct, and that she cannot look into it on my behalf, and ask that you pass it on Julie Porkson when she hopefully wins the forthcoming election.
If your successor is unable to take this on because of the location of the slipway then please advise who would handle a case like this.
Either way, please do not hesitate to contact me for any more information if you think it may be of political use in the hustings.

Kind regards
Michael Dawson
