You asked

Dear TFL, Under Freedom Of Information I formally request copies of the Consultation question documents that were carried out on the Ultra Low Emission Zone on following dates:- First Consultation was carried out from 27/10/2014 to 09/01/2015. Second Consultation was carried out from 01/07/2015 to 25/08/2015. Third Consultation was carried out from 04/04/2017 to 25/06/2017. Fourth Consultation was carried out from 30/11/2017 to 28/02/2018. For the avoidance of any doubt or confusion I request for the Consultation questionnaire documents that Londoners filled in / replied to for TFL to be able to make their conclusions on. I have searched for this documents on TFLs website and it no longer available because when you click on the link a box comes up and reads “unfortunately, this consultation is now closed and no more on line responses will be accepted” Therefore the Consultation questionnaire documents that Londoners filled in / replied to for TFL to be able to make their conclusions on are not available. I wish for these to be sent to me in a PDF or JPEG format, I am Dyslexic therefore not very competent with IT. I cannot see that this is a very difficult request because it must be possible to scan Consultation questionnaire documents that Londoners filled in / replied to for TFL to be able to make their conclusions on and e-mail me the same.
