Under the Freedom of Information Act, please list/provide me with:

1. A list of any capital projects that were due to start within your Local Authority area after May 2010 but that were cancelled either by central government or as a result of central government funding cuts, to include;
a) what the capital project was;
b) how much it was forecasted to cost;
c) how it was being paid for – for example through a specific Government funding pot and;
d) who it was cancelled by, for example the local authority or a Government department.

Our capital budget setting process approves fully funded project budgets (which are therefore due to be undertaken by the council), ahead of the financial year. Should there be a government grant cut (funding stopped) and project(s) stopped as a result, these will be reported as underspends, with details in the Capital Outturn report at the year- end.
