Summary

We publish responses to previous Freedom of Information requests handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) on a quarterly basis. Personal details such as names and addresses (both postal and email) have been removed to protect requesters' privacy.

The FOIA gives people the right to request information from us. It is intended to promote a culture of transparency and accountability, increase public understanding of how public authorities carry out our duties, why we make the decisions we do and how we spend public money.
