FOI, Guildford Borough Council

Dear Shah Nabi,

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 / ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION REGULATIONS
2004

We have considered your request for information.

Answers to your questions as follows:

1. Please provide the addresses of the premises that are known to be
currently operating as shisha bars in your Local Authority:

Cliché, 9 Madrid Road, Guildford, GU2 7NU

Hillside Shisha Lounge, 21 Woodbridge Hill, Guildford, GU2 9AA

2. Please confirm which of these premises that are known to be currently
operating as shisha bars, comply with the Smoke Free Regulations.

Both venues were in compliance with the Smoke Free Regulations at the time
of the last smoke free visits.

3. If there are premises which are operating that do not comply with the
Smoke Free Regulations, please provide a justification as to why they are
permitted to continue operating.

Not applicable.

Copyright and re-use of information

Please be aware that copyright may exist on information that we provide in
response to requests, including attachments.

Where we provide information the Council has authored, you may re-use it
free of charge unless we have stated otherwise. However, in some cases we
do not own the copyright (for example Ordnance Survey owns the copyright
for most map information we use). Therefore, where someone other than
Guildford Borough Council owns the copyright, please check with us if you
plan to re-use it or if you are not sure whether copyright will be an
issue.

Your right to ask for an internal review

I trust the above addresses your enquiry. However, if you do not agree
with the way your request has been handled, you may write to ask the
Council to review the decision. Another officer will carry out a review
and they will then write to you, letting you know if they agree with the
original decision or have reached a different conclusion.

You should write to Customer Services, Guildford Borough Council, Millmead
House, Millmead, Guildford GU2 4BB ([email address]). It is important
that you clearly state that you are asking for an Internal Review and
provide a copy of your correspondence with the Council about this request.
We recommend that you include the reference number and "Internal Review"
in the email or letter header to help avoid delays.

Your right to appeal to the Information Commissioner

You also have the right to contact the Information Commissioner if you
believe we have failed to meet our obligations to deal with your request
for information. Please remember that they will usually only consider
appeals after the Council has had the opportunity to carry out an internal
review. More guidance about your rights is available on the Information
Commissioner's website at www.ico.org.uk.

Yours sincerely,

Chris Woodhatch MCIEH, CEnvH
