James Edmunds,

Dear Kerrie,

The Northamptonshire Police & Crime Panel is a joint committee of the councils in Northamptonshire that is responsible for holding to account the Police & Crime Commissioner for the way in which he delivers his responsibilities for setting strategic priorities for policing in the county.

I need to advise you that the Panel does not have a role in dealing with Freedom of Information requests concerning the Police & Crime Commissioner or his office, or the individual local councils in Northamptonshire.

In this case I think that you should make your FoI request to Northamptonshire County Council as the local education authority. Information about how to make an FoI request to the County Council is set out at the following link:

Regards,

James Edmunds
