Dear Hannah Jewell,

Re: FOI F11498

Thank you for your Freedom of Information request.

Please find below the response to your recent request. The information has
been provided by our Policy and Governance Team.

Your request and our response:

I would like information about your council’s lobbying work in relation to
climate action for the Council Climate Action Scorecards.

In particular, please supply me with information relating to the following
question:

Has the council written to or met with UK national or devolved governments
to ask or lobby for climate action since 1st January 2019? Please provide
some evidence of the most recent letter or meeting such as a copy of the
letter or email sent, or the date, topic of meeting and position of the
person that the meeting was held with.

No information held

This includes either asking for more powers and funding for local
authorities to take climate action, or asking for the government to take
further action themselves. This includes working with other local
authorities to send joint letters or meetings to lobby UK or devolved
governments, and includes both general climate action and calls for action
on specific issues such as transport where climate change is mentioned as
a motivating factor for taking action.

No information held

This includes if a cabinet member or other councillor has written to or
met with the UK or devolved governments on behalf of the council.

No information held

If you are dissatisfied with the information provided or the way in which
we have dealt with your request, you can request a review.   Please write
to Mid-Kent Legal Services, Town Hall, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN1
1RS or via e-mail to [1][email address]  requesting a review
of the decision.

We will aim to deal with your request within 20 working days. If you
remain dissatisfied following our review, you can then appeal to the
Information Commissioner.

Yours sincerely
