1. Information request
Please could you provide me with the following:
1. A list of the vehicles operated by your organisation, including:
- make and model (inc. year) OR if not available, the vehicle type (i.e. van, car etc.)
- engine and fuel type
- emissions class (i.e. whether it is ultra-low emissions) and the emissions in g/km of CO2, if possible
- purchase date
- The agency/unit/NDPB which operates the vehicle
2. Please include as much of this information as is readily available.
3. If it is not possible to compile a full list, for whatever reason, I would consider a breakdown of all the vehicles by points (2) and (3) to fulfil the request, subject to the condition below.
4. Please only include results for non-specialist vehicles that fall within the scope of the Government Fleet Commitment or note whether a vehicle falls within the scope. This is sometimes defined as cars or ‘M1’ vehicles, a United Nations vehicle standard. This may be the category used for vehicle type in point (1) in which case you can consider this part of the request satisfied.
5. If you are encountering practical difficulties with complying with this request, please contact me as soon as possible (in line with your section 16 duty to advise and assist requesters) so that we can discuss the matter and if necessary I can modify the request.
6. If you have received a duplicate of this email, please treat as one request.
7. Please send me the data requested in the form of an Excel spreadsheet or as a csv file.
2. Response
The Social Security Advisory Committee is a statutory independent non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Work and Pensions.
The Social Security Advisory Committee does not have any vehicles, therefore we do not hold any of the information you have requested.
