Response
Extent and Result of Searches to Locate Information
To locate the information relevant to your request searches were carried out within the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC).
I can confirm that the information you have requested is held by the OPCC.
Decision
I have today decided to disclose the located information to you.
- In relation to office refurbishment costs, the OPCC moved to Granby Road in July 2013, however the rental agreement ended on the previous property in Melmerby in August 2013.
The large majority of IT equipment used by the OPCC, excepting 4 monitors and desktops, was inherited from North Yorkshire Police. Any additional equipment that has been purchased is itemised on the PCC website at: https://www.northyorkshire-pfcc.gov.uk/commissioner/finances/expenses/
No carpets or blinds were purchased following the move to Granby Road. Some of the furniture was from existing North Yorkshire Police stock, with other items recycled from the previous occupants of the building. Any decorating costs are included in the below figures.
| Refurbishment Type | Cost |
| Reactive Maintenance | £1,111.96 |
| Trade Waste | £217.50 |
| Cost of Cutting Keys | £30.00 |
| Key Cabinet | £89.00 |
| IT equipment | £596.96 |
| Total | £2045.42 |
There is no information held to answer this part of your request. This is because there have been no refurbishments of the toilets/bathroom facilities at the OPCC.
