For the avoidance of doubt this does not mean information beyond that date cannot be obtained, it simply indicates that it is not available as a matter of course within the model publication scheme.

Charges will be raised for the provision of copies of the documents or information at 10p per sheet; being the actual cost incurred by the Parish Council to provide each copy. Postage, if required, will be charged at actual cost of Royal Mail standard 2^nd class post. These charges are adopted for all Freedom of Information requests but those that include information not included in this model publication scheme may be subject to a £10.00 per hour charge for detailed research.
