Council tax arrears

East Sussex County Council did not have the information requested.

Dear East Sussex County Council,

This is a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act.

I would like to know if any serving councillors have council tax arrears. For each serving councillor that has council tax arrears, please provide the following information:

- The name of the serving councillor
- The total amount that they owe [and then, if possible, please provide a breakdown of that figure of how much they owe by financial year]
- If held, the reasons why the serving councillor has council tax arrears
- The action taken by the council to pursue the individual and the outcome

I would like to receive the information electronically. If you feel that a substantive response to this request is not possible within a reasonable time frame, or the request is too broad or too vague, I would be grateful if you could contact me and provide assistance as to how I could refine the request. Many thanks.

Yours faithfully,

Jenna Corderoy

Dear Ms Corderoy,

 

FOI Request ref: 9497 / Council tax arrears

 

You asked for information on the above. Unfortunately the County Council
does not hold this information because we are not in charge of collecting
Council Tax, as this is the responsibility of the District and Borough
Councils. If you have not already also written to those authorities, the
link below contains the relevant contact details.

Thank you for your request for information which we have been able to
comply with fully on this occasion.  We will now close our files with
regards to this request, if you feel that this particular request has not
been complied with fully under the terms of the Act then please put your
grounds in writing and email us back.

 

Please quote the FOI reference number in any communication regarding this
particular request.

If you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you then
have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a
decision. Generally, the Information Commissioner cannot make a decision
unless you have exhausted the County Council’s internal review procedure
as described in the previous paragraph. The Commissioner can be contacted
at: Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane,
Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF. Tel: 0303 123 1113.  [2]www.ico.org.uk
