Last year I requested (and was supplied with the information about expenses) for 2008 to 2009.

Why is this information now being with held - is someone afraid that it will be more widely disseminated, than just to the councillor who requested it?

The full list of payments made in 2009 to 2010 can be downloaded from this site -
