Dear Chichester District Council,

I have not received a response to my FOI request which I sent on the 11th of April. I was expecting a response by the 10th of May. If I do not receive a response by the 11th of June, I will request an Internal Review.

Yours faithfully,

Helen McNally

Rebecca Gooda, Chichester District Council

Dear Helen,

Under the Council's Standing Orders we are not required to tender for contracts of less than £50,000. Please refer to the relevant page of the internet, link below, for payments over £500.

It is currently impossible to easily separate contractual from non-contractual payments for statutory activity for the FOI period provided in law.

Kind regards,
Rebecca
