Requested Tue 03 September 2024
Responded Wed 11 September 2024

Under the Freedom of Information Act, I would like to request the following information:

1. How many employees are part of your legal team?

2. Do you use external sources for legal advice and if so, what is the average monthly spend on external resources?

3. Do you use a legal research platform and if so, how much do you spend per month on this platform?

4. Who is responsible for the legal costs associated with the above questions?

Response

The Freedom of Information Act is based on recorded information held by a local authority, it is not a tool to ask questions.

Your request is simply asking questions, and therefore falls outside the remit of the Act.
