I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act. In order to assist you with this request, I am outlining my query as specifically as possible.
I would be interested in any information held by your council regarding my request. If you need further clarification, please contact me by email.
1, How many closure orders has your council secured, broken down by the following financial years? 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025
2, Of those how many were:
A, residential addresses
B, How many were non-residential addresses
Should it become apparent that answering this FOI in full would exceed the cost limit please provide the answer to question 1 only.
If my request is denied in whole or in part, I ask that you justify all deletions by reference to specify exemptions of the act. I will also expect you to release all non-exempt material.
I would be grateful if you could confirm in writing that you have received this request. I look forward to your response within 20 working days, as outlined by the statute.
