There is no charge for making a Freedom of Information Act request.
However, if we estimate that it would cost more than Β£450 (2.5 days working time) to retrieve the information, we are entitled to refuse your request.
We may charge for photocopying and other direct costs. The first Β£15 of photocopying will be undertaken free of charge, and after that we may charge you 10 pence per page. We will always let you know in advance if there are costs associated with your request that we will look to recover.
The rules on charging and fees are set out in section 12 of the Act and in the Freedom of Information and Data Protection Appropriate Limit and Fees Regulations 2004.
