Dear Mr Dixon,

Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 2000 Acknowledgement -TWC-59699

Thank you for your request for information received by us on 16 August
2021 asking for the following:

Under the Freedom of Information Act, I would like to request the
following information on the cost of Christmas light switch-ons in the
area.

Could I please receive the total expenditure by the council on hosting
Christmas light switch on events in the area, including decorations and
lights.

Could I please receive the above for both 2019 and 2020 (if applicable).

The Freedom of Information Act requires us to provide this information to
you within 20 working days of receiving your request. Therefore we will
aim to respond to you by the 14 September 2021.

However, if the information you request is subject to an exemption which
prevents us from releasing it, as defined by the Act, we will issue you
with a Refusal Notice together with your rights of appeal.  

There are circumstances where a fee may be payable by you to cover
administration costs (e.g. printing, copying, postage and packaging). If
this applies to your request we will issue you with a ‘Fees Notice’
requesting payment. The fee must be paid before the information requested
is processed and released. The 20 working day time limit for responding
to your request will be suspended until payment is received.

In the meantime, if you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact
us, quoting the above reference number.

Yours sincerely,
