Investments in the Tobacco Industry - Find a freedom of information request

Request

Please can you let me know if the council has any money invested in the tobacco industry, and if so how much? Please include the pension fund.

Decision

I can confirm that the information requested is held by Lincolnshire County Council.

I have enclosed copies of the information that is being released to you.

Please find attached tobacco holdings as at 31 October 2020 attached.

Please be advised that these figures relate to Lincolnshire Pension Fund rather than Lincolnshire County Council itself. The County Council is, by some margin, the largest employer in the fund, but there are approximately 270 employers in the scheme including District Councils, Parish Councils, Schools and Academies etc. 

Should you require the attachment mentioned above please contact customerinformationservice@lincolnshire.gov.uk with the below reference number and this can be provided.
