Dear Mr Hagger,

 

I am writing on behalf of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew ("RBG Kew") in
response to your request for information dated 20 August 2018. I have
treated your request in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act
2000.

 

You asked for the following information:

 

RBG Kew

How many fire extinguishers do you have?        

839 in total

Who services your fire extinguishers?         

ITS Fire & Security

When is your contract for servicing due for renewal?    

February 2019

When are they next due a service?   

June 2019

What is the name and contact details for the person responsible for the
contract renewal?

[1][email address] and [2][email address] at Engie.

 

Wakehurst

How many fire extinguishers do you have?        

220 items

Who services your fire extinguishers?         

ITS Fire & Security

When is your contract for servicing due for renewal?    

March 2019

When are they next due a service?   

June 2019

What is the name and contact details for the person responsible for the
contract renewal?

[3][email address] and [4][email address] at Engie.

 

Please note that the overall maintenance contract is held between RBG Kew
and ENGIE. The fire extinguisher services are then subcontracted to ITS,
which is the information given above. I have given this information
specifically as this is what I believe is being sought. However, the ENGIE
contract currently extends to the summer of 2019 and the people
responsible for the renewal are: [5][email address] and
[6][email address].

 

I hope that you are satisfied with the way in which I have dealt with your
request. However, should you not be satisfied, you are encouraged to
contact the person within RBG Kew who is responsible for assessing RBG
Kew’s responses to information requests. This person is Ms Diane Scott,
our General Counsel. You can write to her at the Royal Botanic Gardens,
Kew, Richmond, Surrey TW9 3AB, or email her at [7][email address].

 

If you remain dissatisfied with the way in which RBG Kew has dealt with
your request, you are entitled to ask the Information Commissioner to
review our decision. You can contact the Office of the Information
Commissioner at the address below.
