Charging for information
In most cases there will be no charge for copies of information. However, we may charge for disbursement costs.
If the amount of information requested is particularly complicated or takes staff hours to collect or collate, a charge could incur. If the request will cost more than £450 to locate, retrieve and extract the information then we can refuse to comply with your request, though we shall also advise you on how you may be able to refine your request. When considering the costs we charge staff time at £25 an hour. If any charges do apply, we will inform you as soon as possible.
