Dear Wai M Yau,

Thank you for your request for information relating to funding requests
received by Sheffield City Council to participate in Doncaster Sheffield
Airport which we received on 19/02/2025.

Please find Sheffield City Council’s response to your request set out
below:

a) Sheffield City Council itself? No

b) Sheffield City Council Through the SYMCA Cabinet, other local
authorities within South Yorkshire or neighbouring regions? No

[to be clear, this is not related to Doncaster’s share of its own
Gainshare funding but for a contribution from Sheffield City Council alone
and/or with other neighbouring councils collectively through any funding
envelope including SYMCA]

 

I would like to know if Doncaster Council or its representatives including
the Mayor of Doncaster Ros Jones have approached or requested any
financial contributions or funding from you,  specifically Sheffield City
Council, or other local authorities collectively within neighbouring South
Yorkshire, including SYMCA, for the reinstatement of the airport.

Specifically, I am interested in any correspondence, meetings, or
discussions where Doncaster Council may have sought financial support or
contributions for Doncaster Sheffield Airport from Sheffield City Council.

If such requests exist, please provide

a) Details of the nature of the assistance sought (e.g., direct funding,
loans, resource sharing). None have been sought from Sheffield City
Council

b) Copies of correspondence (emails, letters, meeting minutes) related to
these requests, or any formal documents relating to this matter. No
requests have been received so there are no documents to disclose.

c) Records of responses from Sheffield City Council or through other
authorities, namely SYMCA. No requests have been received so there are no
documents to disclose.
