The information disclosed to you as part of your request provides the required response to your request, in line with the Regulations.
As we have received multiple requests from you over a certain time period, we have worked with the Data and Analytics team to produce the most efficient reports for you whilst ensuring we answer the response appropriately and in line with the Regulations.
The information provided to you in previous requests, was manually extracted from our systems and as such, if this is required, it will take further time and resources to provide this information to you. We may also have to consider whether charges apply due to the time and resources, as we note on our website regarding EIR requests.
Can you please confirm if you would like to progress with the information in this format? We will then review and confirm whether charges will apply.
Kind regards

Dear Candice,
Thank you for your response. Yes, I require it in the same format as before. I don't believe charges are acceptable since:
1. This information falls squarely within EIR obligations regarding environmental emissions data
2. The data should be readily accessible in your systems given regulatory reporting requirements
3. The time period (2 years) and geographic scope (single postcode area) are reasonable
If you intend to apply charges, please provide detailed written justification with reference to specific EIR provisions.
Regards,
James Twallin
