I would like to know whether the Authority has carried out any form of bin survey over the past five years. Can the Authority provide the number of bin surveys it has conducted in each calendar year since 2014?
If applicable, can the Authority also provide the number of households subject to bin surveys in the same period? For clarity, a bin survey is used to identify the types of rubbish being thrown away by households or which bins are being used, or both.

I would be grateful if you can provide me (under the terms of the Environmental Information Regulations) with a copy of the original deed of gift by which I understand the Council acquired Stoke Park and its ancillary Buildings, any amendment made to that deed in the meantime.

Please would you also, under the same EIR request, provide me with a copy of any executed lease between the Council and any third party in respect of this property.
