Dear Mr Howard
Access to Information under the Freedom of Information Act (2000)
Thank you for your request dated 27 May, in which you request disclosure
of information under the provisions of the above Act; I am now in a
position to respond.
Request:
Please provide details of cash reserves as at 27th May, including details
of reserved and unreserved funds together with details of where are
reserved funds are allocated.
Response:
To collate information of cash reserves as at 27 May would incur a
commitment of resources in excess of the limit of £450 set by the Freedom
of Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees)
Regulations 2004 (SI No. 3244 of 2004), which equates to 18 hours of work.
Section 12(1) of the Freedom of Information Act provides that a public
authority is not obliged to comply with a request where to do so would
exceed such a limit. However, please see the attached document which was
the last published document on reserves.
In the event that you wish to complain about the manner in which your
enquiry has been handled, you should write in the first instance to The
Freedom of Information Officer, Lancashire County Council, PO Box 78,
County Hall, Preston PR1 8XJ, or email
[1][Lancashire County Council request email] and the matter will be referred
to the Head of Information Governance for review and reconsideration.
If, after this stage, you remain dissatisfied, you have the right to refer
the matter to the Information Commissioner, whose contact details are as
follows:
The Information Commissioner

additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
