We do not hold a central record of Section 106 awards and there are in excess of 80 Section 106 Agreements for the period 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020. We would estimate that it would take approximately 20 minutes to review each Agreement to obtain the information requested and, for just the 80 Agreements for the latest financial year, this would take a total of more than 26 hours. This is in excess of the appropriate limit of 18 hours, and we are therefore not obliged to provide this information pursuant to Section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. However, should you wish to refine your request, we would be happy to review.
