Request

1. Please provide a list of the full addresses of all the abandoned and derelict properties in Rushcliffe.
2. Please provide a list of the full addresses of all properties which are eligible for support through the Empty Homes Strategy.

Response

I am unable to release the information requested as the information is exempt from disclosure by virtue of section 31 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.  Section 31(1)(a) states that the information is exempt if its disclosure would be likely to prejudice the prevention or  detection of crime.  The Council has considered the arguments for and against disclosure and has applied the Public interest Test.  The Council's decision is that it would not be in the public interest to disclose information about empty properties as it would be likely to result in criminal activities such as squatting, theft and vandalism.
