Open and Transparent Data

Information held by the government and local councils which is freely available for use and re-use.

Open data is information held by the government and local councils which is freely available for use and re-use by the public.

The aim is to:

  • Make all data we hold available online (unless private or sensitive).
  • Encourage residents, businesses and anyone else with an interest to use our data to develop applications.
  • Increase transparency and accountability.

This section has been created to support Erewash Borough Council's commitment to providing easy access to information on how we work, how we make decisions and the services we provide.

It also includes all of the data required to be published under the Local Government Transparency Code 2015.

The data on this page is published under the Open Government Licence and is available for you to re-use as you like, including for commercial and research activities.

The Council did previously publish data of commonly requested information relating to business rates and Council Tax accounts held by businesses/ organisations.

The Council withdrew this data set following an Information Commissioner’s Office First Tribunal judgement which highlighted that all taxpayer information is confidential and therefore covered by an exemption under Section 41 of the Freedom of Information Act - Information provided in confidence. 

The Council considers that Section 41 applies to customers’ accounts but not to accounts where the Council itself is an account holder and is able to provide details of these accounts on request.

Payments to suppliers

All invoices over £250 (inclusive of VAT) are available for download.  The amount shown on the files is net of VAT as this is the actual cost to the Council. All information is taken from the Council's financial ledger.
