Complaints against councillors

The request was successful.

Hello,

My name is Daniel Jaines and I'm a Local Democracy Reporter at The Lincolnite.

I am sending this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to ask for the following information:

A. The number of overall complaints made against councillors and council staff per year for the past five years
B. The number of those complaints upheld per year
C. The number of overall complaints which relate to discrimination including, but not limited to, misogyny, homophobia, racism or ableism
D. The number of those complaints in C upheld
E. The outcomes of those complaints

i ) Please separate out councillors and staff in your answer.
ii) Please provide the answers for A-D in table form and E as a list.

If you are able to supply some of this information more quickly than other items, please supply each item as soon as it becomes available.

If it is necessary for any reason to redact any information, please redact the minimum necessary and send me the rest of the document(s), explaining the legal grounds for each redaction.

Under FOI guidelines you have twenty working days to answer these questions. Please acknowledge receipt of this request.

Many thanks for your assistance.

Yours sincerely,

Daniel Jaines
