An independent report into Sheffield City Council’s handling and management of Freedom of Information Requests relating to both its historic management of street trees and general requests has found that it has not intentionally withheld information, but that practices used to record and label information were ‘inappropriate’.
A grant from the Chewing Gum Task Force, administered by the environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy, will help Sheffield City Council clean up gum and reduce gum littering.
As a city dating back at least 800 years, Sheffield has an incredibly rich and culturally important history. From Sheffield Castle to the industrial revolution right the way up to the modern day, the city has made its mark on the world.
Today the Lord Mayor of Sheffield, Sioned-Mair Richards, has confirmed that an Extraordinary Meeting will be held to discuss the implications of the street tree inquiry in a first-person piece.
