Response

Please find attached a list of questions as a Freedom of Information (FoI) request, on the use, training and policies regarding translation services and technology in your organisation. We would appreciate it if you did your best to complete the questionnaire with answers that fully represent your organisation's practices and policies.

Please see the attached completed questionnaire.

Regarding question 2.2, Herefordshire Council do not record the percentage of total expenditure.

If you are a company intending to use the names and contact details of council officers provided in this response for direct marketing, you must be registered with the Information Commissioner to process personal data for this purpose. You must also check that the individual (whom you wish to contact for direct marketing purposes) is not registered with one of the preference services to prevent direct marketing. If they are you must adhere to this preference. You must also ensure you comply with the Privacy Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). For more information see www.ico.org.uk.

For the avoidance of doubt, the provision of individual names and contact details under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 does not give consent to receive direct marketing via any media and expressly does not constitute a 'soft opt-in' under PECR.
