Freedom of information request

You can make a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to request for any information the Combined County Authority holds unless it is about yourself. You do not need to give a reason.
You can also ask for information about environmental matters by making an Environmental Information Request. Where we talk about FOI requests on this page, it applies to Environmental Information Requests as well.
The Information Commissioner’s website has more information about  how to access information from a public authority.


Before making an FOI request

Before making an FOI request, check if the information is already available. You can find out about the Combined County Authority on the website or search on published responses on the directory.


Making an FOI request

Requests must be made in writing. The quickest way is via the form below. If you write by post, please include an email address if possible. We'll respond by email unless you request another method. If you're unable to make a written request due to a disability, please contact us for assistance.


When not to make an FOI request

You should not make an FOI request to ask us about a service you are receiving. Contact the service directly for these requests. To ask for information that we hold about you, please make a Subject Access Request instead.

To submit a Freedom of Information Request, please fill out this form as fully as possible so we can deal with your request efficiently.

Items marked required must be completed. Other information may help us with your enquiry, but you do not have to supply it.

When you send us this form, you will be sent an email which will contain the information you submitted. This will be sent to you without encryption so please ensure you do not include any sensitive information on this form.

Privacy statement

We will only process the information you provide on this form to deal with your Freedom of Information Request.

The information you provide may be shared across the various service areas of the Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority (GLCCA), as well as the Authority’s Constituent Authorities to fully investigate and answer the request. Where we need to liaise with a third party who provides a service for the Authority, we will only share details of the request. We will not share your personal information. We will contact you to get your permission if it becomes necessary to pass on any personal information
