1. I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). I am specifically seeking basic, non-identifiable data on the properties managed by your organisation (council housing/social housing). This request is designed to avoid any disclosure that could contravene Section 40(2) of the FOIA, which safeguards personal data. Please provide the following information for each property your organization manages:
a) First line of address
b) Postcode
c) Year of construction (if available)
d) Type of property (e.g., house, flat, maisonette)
e) Number of bedrooms
For clarity, this request does not seek any information related to freehold/leasehold status, as this could potentially reveal private information regarding an individual’s legal rights over a property.
Please see stock report outlining requirements of the request below, except construction year which we do not hold.
