Case reference FOI2019/00484
Published 27 June 2019
Request
am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information:
1. Does the council own any high-rise buildings which required aluminium composite material (ACM) cladding or any other dangerous cladding material to be removed?
2. If so, please provide a list of these buildings. If the council considers any exemption to apply to the names of these buildings, please still provide the list in an Excel spread sheet but with the 'names' column blank. In the other columns, please provide: a) the number of storeys b) the name of the principal contractor when the cladding was originally installed c) whether or not the cladding has been removed d) whether or not the cladding has been replaced e) the name of the principal contractor on the work to remove the cladding
3. Does the council have a policy on what happens to the cladding materials once they have been removed e.g. they are destroyed? If so, please describe that policy.
4. Does the council have a process to ensure that contractors are complying with this policy? If so, please describe that process.
5. Is the council aware that any cladding materials have been sold to third parties after being removed? If it is not possible to provide the information requested due to the information exceeding the cost of compliance limits identified in Section 12, please provide advice and assistance, under your Section 16 obligations, as to how I can refine my request to be included in the scope of the Act.
