Multiply programme spending - Find a freedom of information request

With regards to your authority's Multiply programme spending, please provide:

1. A copy of the original investment plan and/or prospectus agreed with DfE and any updated versions

2. List of each intervention funded through the programme, including any descriptive or summary text explaining what the intervention was, how many learners started and completed each intervention so far.

3. If possible or easier, please provide this broken down by provider. I would be happy to forego this element if the information is not already available or this would take this request over the amount of time allowed for FOIs.

4. A breakdown of the up-to-date outturn/final spend was for each intervention or group of interventions.

5. What your authority's forecast underspend for this year is, if any.

I can confirm that the information requested is held by Lincolnshire County Council. I have detailed below the information that is being released to you.

3. To find and locate this information would take longer than the 18 allowed under section 12(1) of the FOI Act 2000 Section 12(1) of the Freedom of Information 2000 does not oblige a public authority to comply with a request for information if the authority estimates that the cost of complying with the request would exceed the appropriate limit. The appropriate limit is currently £450 or 18 hours at a cost of £25 per hour. The exemption under section 12 is not subject to the public interest test Any refined request will be treated as a new request under the Freedom of Information Act.
