Request

I am writing to request information from the local authority under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

In order to assist you with this request, I am outlining my query as specifically as possible.
I would like to know:

- How many reports have been made about fake/scam QR Codes at council-owned or council-operated car parks in the past 12 months?

- The names of the council-owned or council-operated car parks which have been affected.

- Please also provide copies of the 5 most recent reports related to QR scams at council-owned or council-operated car parks (or fewer if there are less than 5). I understand these may be redacted for personal information, but I ask that you redact only exempted information and justify the use of those exemptions
