Dear Sir or Madam,

Can you please detail, for each year since your public website was
launched, how much money has been spent on creating, developing,
and running it.

Where possible, please break these costs out by function (for
example, development, design, updates, changes, hosting,
co-location, domain registration, licensing etc). Where the costs
have been incurred with external providers, please list the company
in question. For internal staff time, if this is not recorded
and/or charged explicitly, please provide estimates based on
salary/overheads of people involved.

Yours faithfully,

Nick

Dear Mr McBride

I refer to your request for information regarding the cost of the
council website and our previous correspondence on this matter of 10th
July 2008.

Please find attached a schedule giving details of the information we
have released with a copy of this information.

Anyone who has requested information has rights of appeal against our
decisions to withhold information, about the amount of fees we have
decided to charge or if they are generally dissatisfied with the way
their request has been handled. These rights consist of two review
processes. First, by using our internal complaints procedure by writing
to the Corporate Improvement Manager; secondly by appealing to the
Office of the Information Commissioner. The Commissioner expects that
the internal complaints procedure is completed before an appeal is made.

If you have any queries about this correspondence or the information
attached please contact the Corporate Improvement Manager at Mossley
Mill, Telephone

028 9034 0038, Fax 028 9034 0043 or e-mail [Newtownabbey Borough Council request email]
