   • As per Rushcliffe Borough Councils retention policy we purge this kind of financial data from our systems after 6 years so the furthest back we can give you is in relation to 2016/17, being £736k, and 21/22 £831k.
2. How many school playing fields were there in May 2012 compared to May 2022?
   • Rushcliffe Borough Council are not the education authority so we cannot comment on school pitches. We can only provide information on those pitches we own and operate. Nottinghamshire County Council are the education authority enquiries@nottscc.gov.uk
3. How many free-to-use public sports fields were there in May 2012 compared to May 2022?
   • Rushcliffe Borough Council do not provide any free-to-use sports fields. Our pitches are all bookable in return for hire fees.
