Request
Please could I request for the finance department structure and for the names of the individuals in each post, as the information I currently have is out of date.
Our Response
I refer to your email requesting copies of our Finance structure chart.
I can confirm in accordance with S.1 (1) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) that we do hold the information that you have requested. However, we are of the opinion that the exemption available to us under Section 21 of the FOIA is engaged in this instance as this information is available via our website.
However, Section 16 of the FOIA places a duty on us to provide help and assistance where necessary and I have attached below a link to our Finance structure charts.
Please note that the structure charts are liable to change and it is advisable to check our website on a regular basis to ensure you have the most up to date version.
