Dear Elizabeth Long,  

Thank you for your Freedom of Information request, which was logged under
FOI 22/1159 VALE and passed to me to respond accordingly.

Under Section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the 2000 Act) you
are entitled to be informed in writing whether the council holds the
information specified in your request and, if that is the case, to have
that information communicated to you unless any of the statutory
exemptions apply. I have considered your request and can confirm we do
hold some of the information asked and believe any of the statutory
exemptions apply to your request. Please find below the information you
requested (where available):

Questions: ‘Did the council pay all of the cost of the recently acquired
zero emissions bus which serves Milton Park? If not, how much did they
pay, and who paid the rest of it?’

Answer: ‘No, the council did not pay for the zero emissions bus that will
be serving Milton Park.’

Please treat this as the councils’ formal response under the 2000 Act.  If
you are not satisfied with the decision I have made in response to your
request, you can make a request for an internal review by emailing
[1][Vale of White Horse District Council request email] within 40 working days from the day we issued
our response. If you remain dissatisfied after following that procedure,
you have the right under Section 50 of the 2000 Act to complain to the
Information Commissioner if you feel the council has not dealt with your
request properly. You can contact the Commissioner at Wycliffe House,
Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF (telephone number: 0303 123 1113).
You can also find further information at [2]www.ico.org.uk.
