Dear Asuquo,

Freedom of Information Act 2000 - Request for Information

I am writing in respect of your recent enquiry for information held by the Authority under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act.

Please find attached the information requested in respect of long term empty commercial properties.

The Council considers that the full addresses of privately owned properties can be considered to be personal data and are therefore exempt under section 40 (personal information) of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), as the information constitutes third party personal data.

If you are unhappy with the way the authority has handled your request, you may ask for an internal review. Please contact the Senior Information Governance Officer by post: Wakefield Metropolitan District Council, Corporate Information Governance Team, Room 117, County Hall, Wakefield, WF1 2QW or alternatively email: [Wakefield City Council request email] who will arrange an internal review of your case. A Senior Legal Officer, who was not party to the original decision, will review the decision and determine the appeal.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further queries regarding this matter.

Yours sincerely

Senior Information Governance Officer
