Public Play Facilities Expenditure

The request was partially successful.

Dear Aberdeenshire Council,

The Association of Play Industries (API) has previously carried out FOI research to establish the extent to which public play areas are being retained, increased or reduced. We would like to update this research with a view to lobbying central government for funding. To that end, we would like to request the following information under the Freedom of Information Act:

1. The amount expended in fiscal year 2019 (including any remaining forecasted spending) on public outdoor play facilities including capital, revenue and maintenance costs.
2. The amount budgeted to be spent in fiscal year 2020 on public outdoor play facilities including capital, revenue and maintenance costs.

Yours faithfully,

Samuel Lubrano

Acknowledge email,

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your information request.

If you are making a request for information under FOI(S)A we will respond

If you are making a request for environmental information under EIRs we

However, for requests of a complex nature it could take us up to 40

If you are making a request for information under DPA/GDPR we will respond
within the statutory timeframe of one month except in the case of complex
