Employment of UK Architects (FOI)

Request 

Please could you let me know what States / Government / arms-length-government bodies have employed UK architects for projects and who those architects are? Over the last 5-10 years, please. If some projects are joint-ventures between UK and Jersey architects, that would be good to know, too-plus which architects collaborated.

Many thanks 

Response

The information requested is not held in recorded form, therefore Article 3 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies. To provide a response to this request would require extraction and manipulation of data to produce new information.

A Scheduled Public Authority is not required to manipulate and create new data sets. It has been estimated that the cost of extracting the data would exceed the cost limit provisions set out in the Freedom of Information (Costs) (Jersey) Regulations 2014. Article 16 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law has been applied.

(1) A scheduled public authority that has been requested to supply information may refuse to supply the information if it estimates that the cost of doing so would exceed an amount determined in the manner prescribed by Regulations.
