Following on, regarding the S19-715 Flood Investigation Report, for reasons of transparency, we request:
1. A copy of the versions of the S19-715 report as per the 'Version History' table on page 7 of the report, namely: Revision 1.0, 1.1, 1.2
2. Details of the total amount paid to FPS Environmental Ltd for the production of the Section 19 (S19-715) report. - Decision

1. For clarity when compiling a Section 19 report a version number is assigned as information and detail is gathered and added during the process. Whilst reports have been allocated a version number for the purposes of developing and compiling the report, these reports are only partially complete and will not contain any different information to that provided in the final report. Therefore, the final version of S19-715 is that which should be referenced as this is the complete and final version containing all information that has been gathered.
2. Due to the number of investigations that were required to be undertaken across the county following Storms Babet and Henk, Lincolnshire County Council commissioned 3 consultants to deliver the reports as part of ‘work packages’. Therefore, reports were not paid for on an individual basis i.e. per report produced. Therefore whilst a figure cannot be provided specifically for report S19-715, if an average is taken for all reports produced by FPS as part of their work package this would give a figure of £1,088.86 per report (which includes site visits, data gathering and report production).
