Confirm receipt of feeA freedom of information request is a formal request made to a public body for information that it holds. The Freedom of Information Act 2000 gives a general right of access to all types of recorded information held by public authorities. The Act also sets out exemptions from disclosure and places a duty on public authorities to release certain types of information.
FOI laws grant individuals the right to access information held by public authorities. When making an FOI request, there may be certain fees or charges involved, such as processing or photocopying costs. This template acknowledges the receipt of payment for such requests.
The confirmation letter typically includes important details such as the date and method of payment, the amount paid, the FOI request reference number or title, and the designated public authority responsible for processing the request. It serves as a formal acknowledgement, ensuring transparency and compliance with legal requirements.
By providing an official receipt, this letter confirms that the payment has been received and the associated FOI request will proceed as per the established procedures under UK law. This document can also help individuals keep track of their payments and serves as evidence of fulfilling the financial obligations associated with their information requests.

Software Engineer Contract
This Software Engineer contract template is designed for a commercial software engineering organisation (or an individual software engineer) to use when contracting out their skills and services in exchange for payment. This contract sets out the type of software engineering and software-engineering-related services to be completed by the software engineer on behalf of the client, with consideration for expectations around quality and delivery timescales, as well as any mitigating circumstances. This contract allows for payment to be made by the client to the software engineering firm or individual software engineer on a weekly or monthly basis but can easily be edited to account for other payment schedules and could be altered to include bonuses conditional on performance. It can also be fully customised with the details of the two parties and the duration of the contract and can be printed, downloaded and edited freely as part of our mission to open source business legals. This is a template for contractors who fit outside of the UK's off-payroll working rules (IR35).
