Answer: The information for questions 1-16 is not held. The Service Area have advised our contracts only relate to the delivery of charge points in Herefordshire.
Herefordshire Council is not responsible for the delivery of charge points for any other authority including Warwickshire Council and have not worked with Warwickshire Council on any procurement relating to EV charge points.
