    Responded  Wed 04 September 2019

    My FOI request concerns council expenditure on refreshments between 1st January 2018 and 31st December 2018.

    Please can you tell me how much was spent on tea and biscuits at council committee meetings over the course of the year?

      What type of biscuits and brand of tea were supplied? 

    If the information is held centrally and will not exceed cost requirements, could you please provide me with the equivalent figures for departmental meetings too?
