Response

Thank you for your freedom of information request received on 5 September however, I have to advise you that we will not be able to answer your request without exceeding the appropriate limit. This is because we cannot search areas, only certain properties. To search the information requested an officer would have to search each address in Rushcliffe, locate and retrieve the information which would then have to be sorted through to extract the required info.

Section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act makes provision for public authorities to refuse requests for information where the cost of dealing with them would exceed the appropriate limit, which for local authorities is set at £450. This represents the estimated cost of one person spending 2 working days in determining whether the authority holds the information, and locating, retrieving and extracting it. The appropriate limit is prescribed by regulation 3 of the Freedom of Information and Data Protection (appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations 2004.

The Council may be able to provide some information in the scope of your request if you reduce or refine your request to bring the cost of compliance under the limit by giving an exact address for which you require the info for.
