“Knowle Office Relocation
Following a review of the Council’s main headquarters accommodation at the Knowle, Sidmouth, the Council have committed to the implementation of an office relocation programme. A Member Working Party has been established to oversee the programme and progress of the work of the Officer Working Group led by Richard Cohen, Deputy Chief Executive.
The key outcomes of the project will be:-
• Reduced overheads
• Improved carbon footprint
• Improved accessibility to customers and visitors
• Cultural Transformation”

Well, the “customers” are developers according to EDDC but as for “cultural transformation” – anyone hazard a guess as to what transformation people will have on what is currently a mostly industrial park adjacent to an airport runway!

So does being “committed to the implementation of an office relocation programme” constitute “a decision” – a lack of decision being the reason that the ICO allowed EDDC to avoid the FoI request for information on the relocation?
