The Dorset Association of Parish and Town Councils
This is an association of local councils. If you are requesting information from or about one individual council, it may be better to direct your request to the relevant body.

Associations of local councils are organisations that represent and support local councils in the UK. They are made up of member councils and work to promote the interests of local government at the regional level. These associations usually play a role in advocating for the needs of local communities and providing resources and guidance to member councils. This body appears likely to be subject to FOI as all its members are public bodies.

The Information Commissioner has though decided, in case ICO case reference 771912, that the Association of South Essex Local Authorities is not subject to FOI. *
