5)      The initial 'fine' amount of a fixed penalty notice issued for breach of a CPN.

If you are unable to provide details behind each individual CPN Warning and CPN due to exceeding the cost of compliance limits identified under Section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act, please place the circumstances of each CPN Warning and CPN issued under broad categories such as 'allowing dog to escape/severely overgrown garden/fly tipping in garden,' alongside the number issued for that offence.

If it is not possible to provide all the information requested due to the request exceeding the cost of compliance limits identified in Section 12, please answer as many of the questions as is possible within the time limits, or advise me as to how this request can be broken down to comply.

If you hold no record of CPNs or CPN warnings being issued in your local authority area, or if none have been issued, please respond to this FOI request accordingly.

If any of this information is available publicly, please provide a link to the document or webpage where the information, exactly as requested, is published.
