FOI requests from the media

The request was partially successful.

Dear Manchester City Council,

Hope you can help me with the following:

How many Freedom of Information requests did you receive in each of the last three years (either Jan – Dec or financial year, however you log them)

How many were received from the media (if you could tell from the request) – for media I mean national or local newspapers, national or local TV and national or local radio. Do not count website/blogs etc)

How many of those requests from the media were environmental requests and were considered under EIR?

If you publish a FOI disclosure log could you please send me the link and indicate any reference numbers of requests falling under Q2? If they are not on a disclosure log could you send me the relevant responses (minus the name and address of requester)

If you keep a log of FOI request that result in media coverage for your organisation, or any press cuttings, could you send me that log please.

Many thanks in advance

Rose York

Manchester City Council
