Dear Mr McMahon,

 

Your request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000

 

Thank you for your request which we received on 22nd September 2017

 

We will be dealing with your request under the Freedom of Information Act
2000 (“the Act”).

 

The scope of the search is for information relating to National Joint
Councils (NJC) for Local Authority Fire & Rescue Services, as set out in
your request letter.

 

As we believe we have fully understood the nature of your request, we are
commencing with your request today. The Council now has 20 working days in
which to supply the information requested so a response will be sent to
you on or before the twentieth working day of your request, which is 20th
October 2017

 

Under the Act, we may not process any request where the actual cost to the
authority in terms of staff hours comes to more than £450. If it becomes
apparent that your request will exceed this limit, we will again contact
you to discuss this point.

 

Cornwall Council is committed to open and transparent government and
provides information to members of the public about all aspects of the
authority. 

 

We deal with over 4000 requests for information each year. We estimate
that the cost of dealing with each request ranges between £150 and £350 to
administer.  You may be able to find the information by checking previous
responses at http://www.cornwall.gov.uk/default.aspx?... or
checking the Council’s website at www.cornwall.gov.uk. Therefore if you do
subsequently find the information you require by this method and no longer
wish us to process your request, please let us know.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further queries
and remember to quote the reference number above in any future
communications.

 

Yours sincerely,

Dhywgh hwi yn hwir,

Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service

Thank you for your Freedom of Information/Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) request - Reference FOI-101003405571. In normal circumstances we will provide a response within 20 working days of receiving your request.

In the majority of cases, the response will be sent to you from Cornwall Council. However, the Council has a number of wholly owned arm?s length companies and where the information is held by these companies, the request will be administered and responded to by the relevant company. This includes Cornwall Housing, CORMAC and Cornwall Development Company (CDC).

There may be some instances where we will need to contact you in the order to clarify parts of your request, or where the cost of dealing with your request is excessive due to the time involved in collating the information. If this is the case we will help you to narrow the request to take it under any cost limit. Under EIR Regulations, there are also instances where a charge may be applied for information that is not required to be routinely published. We will notify you if this is the case.

There are occasions when information may be withheld due to data protection issues or where the information is of a commercially sensitive nature or is deemed confidential. Where this is the case, we will apply an exemption under FOI or exception under EIR and clearly set out the reasons for withholding the information. Under FOI legislation, all responses are deemed to be released to the ?world at large?. Therefore when requesting information of which you may be aware of certain aspects, our response must be based on it being released into the wider public domain.

There may also be a small number of occasions where we may need to extend the 20 working day deadline. We will inform you if this is likely. More information can also be found on our Freedom of information pages using the following link: https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/council-and-...

Cornwall Council and its arm?s length companies are committed to open and transparent government and provide information to members of the public about all aspects of the Council and these companies. Over 4000 requests for information are received each year and it is estimated that the cost to the Council and its arm?s length companies of dealing with each request ranges between £150 and £350 to administer. You may be able to find the information by checking previous responses using http://www.cornwall.gov.uk/default.aspx?... or checking the Council?s website at www.cornwall.gov.uk.
