1. Who had the final say to sign off on this? 2. Who came up with these questions? can we have the names please so we can take this to the appropriate authorities if needed? We're not looking for group names these people like to hide behind, we want the actual person or people’s names who constructed this "census". 3. I would be grateful if you could look at this again and review Renfrewshire's stance.
