Prepared internally, no external costs.

Request

What is the monthly maintenance and upkeep cost of each of the public multi-story car parks? (itemised if possible)

Response

The car park section within Infrastructure & Environment (I&E) do not maintain a list of the monthly maintenance costs to update the multi-story car parks. Article 10 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies.

Systems are not configured in a way that will allow extraction of the details requested.  A manual search of records would be required in order to obtain this information. 

It has been estimated that it would take in excess of 12.5 working hours to locate and retrieve the data requested.  Therefore, your request will not be processed further.

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. Article 16 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 has been applied.

Articles applied

Article 10 - Obligation of scheduled public authority to confirm or deny holding Information

(1) Subject to paragraph (2), if –

(a) a person makes a request for information to a scheduled public authority; and

(b) the authority does not hold the information, it must inform the applicant accordingly.

Article 16 - A scheduled public authority may refuse to supply information if cost excessive

(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. 

(2) Despite paragraph (1), a scheduled public authority may still supply the information requested on payment to it of a fee determined by the authority in the manner prescribed by Regulations for the purposes of this Article.

(3) Regulations may provide that, in such circumstances as the Regulations prescribe, if two or more requests for information are made to a scheduled public authority –

(a) by one person; or

(b) by different persons who appear to the scheduled public authority to be acting in concert or in pursuance of a campaign, the estimated cost of complying with any of the requests is to be taken to be the estimated total cost of complying with all of them.
