The Councils are subject to the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (the Information Acts) and all correspondence received from Bidders may be subject to disclosure in accordance with the Information Acts. The 5 Councils Partnership undertakes to use reasonable endeavours to hold confidential any information provided in the proposal submitted, subject to the Councils obligations under law, including the Freedom of Information Act 2000. If the applicant considers that any of the information submitted in the proposal should not be disclosed because of its sensitivity then this should be stated with the reason for considering it sensitive.

On receipt of an information request relating to the information considered exempt the Councils will, where reasonably practicable, consult with the relevant tenderer in considering any request for disclosure before disclosing such information. However, in submitting any information to the Councils Bidders accept and acknowledge that the Councils may, acting in accordance with the Information Acts and associated codes of practice, disclose information:
