Property guardianships
See notes
I would like to request the following information:
1. The number of sites owned by your council which have been in contract with a property guardianship company, for each year inclusive since 2014. (i.e. please provide that number of sites for Jan 1 2014-Dec 31 2014, the number for Jan 1 2015-Dec 31 2015, and so on, up to the number for Jan 2023-Dec 2023 to date of receipt of this email).
We don’t hold records of past arrangements with Guardianship companies. Currently we have guardianship arrangements at five different properties.
2. The original function of that site (e.g. residential council house, residential council flat, town hall, library, school, etc).
Residential.
3. The number of guardians permitted to live at that site.
