FOI/EIR 26/27-327-ICT Contracts

Details of all current ICT contracts

Request received 18 September 2026

Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 I would like to request the following information held by East Cambridgeshire District Council.

A list of current contracts for ICT services, network and connectivity, telephony and unified communications, data centre or hosting, enterprise software (finance, HR, housing, social care or similar) and programme or project management services. For each contract please give the supplier’s name, a short description, the start date, the end date, any extension options, the annual or total value and the job title of the contract owner.

If this information is published in the organisation's contracts register under the Local Government Transparency Code, a link to the current register is a complete answer.

Responded 18 September 2026

In respect of those requests that were answered in full or partially and the total refused please take this as notice under FOIA, that we:

a) Consider the information as exempt from disclosure under the Act:

b) Claim exempt under sections of the Act:

Section 21 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000

c) State why the exemption applies:

The information requested is accessible to you via other means at: Open data: Procurement information | Open data | East Cambridgeshire District Council

Section 21 states the following: 

  1. Information which is reasonably accessible to the applicant otherwise than under Section 1 is exempt information. 
  2. For the purposes of subsection (1) – 
    1. Information may be reasonably accessible to the applicant even though it is accessible only on payment, and 
    2. Information is to be taken to be reasonably accessible to the applicant if it is information which the public authority or any other person is obliged by or under any enactment to communicate (otherwise than by making the information available for inspection) to members of the public on request, whether free of charge or on payment. 

Therefore, as the Council publish this information, the information is exempt from disclosure under Section 21 of the Act.
