You asked
My apologies I may have not drafted my FoI request properly. I am not in any way requesting TfL to breach legislation. I now will attempt to redraft my questions for your response please.
Can you please advise me of the following:
• The TfL response times for the removal of Offensive and Non-Offensive Graffiti and Fly Posting on assets owned by TfL on the TLRN.
• The TfL response times for the removal of Offensive and Non-Offensive Graffiti and Fly Posting on assets not owned by TfL (third party assets) on the TLRN.
• The TfL response times for the removal of Offensive and Non-Offensive Graffiti and Fly Posting visible from the TLRN (for example Commercial and Private Properties).
