Dear Ms Jewell

Further to your e-mail below, requesting information under the Freedom of
Information Act 2000, I have been asked to obtain clarification in order
that that I can identify and locate the information you have asked for.

Your request was as follows:

I would like information about your council’s homes and MEES enforcements
in relation to climate action for the Council Climate Action Scorecards.
This information may be held by a housing department or similar.  In
particular, please supply me with information relating to the following
questions:

a) What is the energy efficiency of the council's homes (managed or owned
by the council)? Please provide either a distribution table with the
number of buildings for each EPC rating or the percentage of the council’s
homes that have received an EPC rating of C or above.

b) What is the number of investigations, enforcement notices and
enforcement actions that the council did, related to MEES (Minimum Energy
Efficiency Standards) in the 2021/22 financial year.

Where data is available separately for each statistic please provide
separately. If only some information is available, please give me that
information.

Can you please clarify whether question (b) relates to homes managed or
owned by the Council or whether it relates to the Private Rented Sector?
Once I am in receipt of this information, I will be in a position to
respond to you within 20 working days.  If no response is received within
