I think that it would have been in his best interest, were he to have made his stance public knowledge, but I suppose he was told to keep his opinions to himself. The irony!

If I write a "Dear Minister" letter to a minister about some topic, lets say overcrowding in a particular school, will that letter ever become available to the public*

either under the 30 year rule, or under a more recent FOI request?

I don't want to name names if my letter, with my signature, is going to be public.
