Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Thank you for your request for information which we will handle under the
Environmental Information Regulations 2005.

The Regulation allows us up to 20 working days (excluding statutory
holidays), with an additional 20 working days for voluminous or complex
requests, to process a valid request for information. We will inform you
if we require the additional time for your request. 

 

Please Note - Due to Government guidance in relation to the Coronavirus we
are currently working remotely which may affect our ability to access
records which are held in hard copy, or within our archives. 
Additionally, if the situation worsens and staff become unwell, we may not
be able to gather from them the information to satisfy your request in
full.  We will continue to disclose all electronic data we have access to,
and any undisclosed data held will be made available to you once we are
able to access the material, subject to any applicable exemptions. 

 

We may be in touch with you should we require any further clarification.

 

We will determine and let you know whether we hold the information you
have requested and consider whether we are able to release the information
or if it is exempt from disclosure.

 

ECC does not usually charge for providing information to its requestors as
the provision of electronic copies is negligible, however under certain
circumstances we may have to do so if providing the information costs more
than £25. We will let you know before we do any work that would incur a
charge.

 

Please note that the response and data released to you as part of this
request will be published on the Essex County Council website. The website
