I put in an FOI request to Central Bedfordshire regarding funding of the Financial Investigations Unit of Trading Standards:

http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/financial_investigations_unit_fu_2

I got a reply, and it's fine as far as it goes, but it only goes as far back in time as when Central Bedfordshire took over responsibility for the unit. Prior to that, it was managed by Bedfordshire county council, which was abolished in March 2009.

So, I have two questions that I'd appreciate some comments on from those more knowledgeable in FOI matters than I am:

1. Is it reasonable for Central Bedfordshire to not have data from before the time they took over the unit?

2. If so, how can I get it when the organisation which did have the data no longer exists?
