Dear Robert Kimber,
INFORMATION REQUEST - Received: 22 Jan 2018
Thank you for your request for information. We acknowledge receipt of your request, and we will
respond to your request separately.
Most information requests are dealt with under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. However
environmental information is considered for disclosure under the Environmental Information
Regulations 2004. If the information you have requested is personal information about yourself,
we must consider disclosure under the Data Protection Act 1998. If this is the case we will
provide you with a subject access request form for completion and notify you of relevant
timescales and fees.
We will transfer the request to the correct legislation automatically, as required by the Freedom of
Information Act. For further information on how we will deal with your request, please see the

timescale to be extended in certain circumstances. If your request is affected by a timescale
extension we will explain this to you.

a decision being taken on whether we disclose the information to you.

you know. If you require alternative formats, e.g. language, audio, braille, large print, etc. then
please let us know.
Exemptions
The Freedom of Information Act and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 define a
number of exemptions, which may prevent release of the information you have requested.
Before we provide the information we will consider whether it is proper to release it. If any of
the exemption categories do apply then the information will not be released. We will tell you if
this is the case, and you will have a right of appeal.
Fees

Protection (Appropriate Limits and Fees Regulations) 2004. We will consider this and let you
know. If so you will have to pay the fee before we process and release the information. The 20
