Dear Mr/Ms Hallatt
I write in response to your request for information received earlier today.
Section 1(1)(a) of the Act requires the Council to inform you whether it holds information of the description specified in your request. I confirm that the Council does hold some of this information. In discharge of its obligation under section 1(1)(b) I can provide you with the following link the Council's website where the addresses of all Council Tax properties within the North Devon billing area as at 2 July 2018 are published: https://www.northdevon.gov.uk/open-data/... and will be updated in accordance with Section 22 of the Act in October 2018. I can confirm that the Council does not record the rest of the information as per your request below, and therefore this is not held by the authority.
In accordance with Section 21(1) of the Act, the Council is not obliged to provide information that is already in the public domain. However, it does have a duty under Section 16(1) to provide all applicants advice and assistance in order to assist with locating the information, which I have done so in providing you with the link to the dataset above.
If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the right to request an internal review which should be received within two months from the date of the response letter and should be sent to;
