RE: Information Request Ref No: 17487

Thank you for your FOI request and this is now being considered within the
statutory framework. The due date for a response to be issued is by
04/12/2023. We will contact you should we require further information to
be able to answer your request which will affect the above date.

Please be aware the legislation define a number of exemptions (Exceptions
for Environmental Information Regulations (EIR)) which may prevent release
of some or all of information you have requested. Your request will be
reviewed and if any of the exemption categories apply, then this
information will not be provided.

If collating the information you have requested, is going to exceed the
appropriate limit then your request will be refused on the grounds of
‘Manifestly Unreasonable’. You will be informed if there is a way to
resubmit the request so that this is within a reasonable response time
(e.g. below 18 hours for Freedom of Information), or the cost of
completing the request if you would like to pay for the work to be done.
In this event, the fee must be paid before the information is provided and
timescale will be suspended until payment has been processed. In the case
of EIR or Subject Access your request may be extended which allows
additional time to compete the request in the case of voluminous or
complex cases.

If you have any queries, please contact Information Services on 0118 974
6000 or email [Wokingham Borough Council request email].

Please quote the above reference number on any communication.
