Freedom of Information Act,

Dear Mr Cannings,

 

Thank you for your enquiry, which has been forwarded to the appropriate
officers for a response.

 

However, if you are seeking these details for commercial purposes, please
note that the Council has a set way of engaging with those who wish to do
business with us as set out [1]here on our website. Correspondence outside
this process seeking to establish a business relationship is unlikely to
receive a response and may be treated as spam.

 

Please note that following a decision by the Cabinet at a meeting on 4th
September 2012, FoI requests to West Sussex County Council and the
Council's responses will be published on the Council's website in a
suitably anonymised form. This is in addition to the individual response
to the requestor, and in line with the Council's commitment to
transparency and open data.

 

Yours sincerely,

Dave Loveman

Customer Relations Team Manager

Dear David, Just to clarify this is not a business request - I am just trying to make a comparison of pay and structures amongst nearby local authorities as I work myself in ICT and am undergoing a restructure at my authority.
