Dear Ms. McGinty,

 

Information Request:  FOI 19447

 

Thank you for your information request dated 2 August 2023 received in our
office yesterday.

 

1. Please list all council-funded public swimming pools that provide
'women only' or 'ladies only' (or similarly described) swimming sessions
in your local authority.

2. Which of the listed facilities that advertise 'women only' or 'ladies
only' (or similarly described) swimming sessions, provide an environment
that is exclusively single sex, i.e., for females only, and which
facilities provide a session that is mixed sex, i.e., do not exclude males
who identify as a woman?

3. Please send me a copy of the council policy or policies that cover the
provision of 'women only' or 'ladies only' (or similarly described)
swimming sessions.

4. Please tell me, do the council-funded leisure centres and sports
facilities provide single sex changing rooms and showers in your local
authority?

 

I have reviewed your request and investigated whether there is any
information which can be disclosed to you and have found that Lewes
District Council does not hold the information you have requested.

 

The management and administration of swimming pools in Lewes District has
been out-sourced to Wave Leisure and consequently the council does not
hold this information.

 

All applicants have a 'right to review'.  A review should be focused on
the original request and should identify how the council’s response failed
to answer your information request.  Reviews must be made in writing (or
e-mail) within 40 working days of receipt of this response and addressed
to the Information Governance Reviews Officer, to the address below.
