Data supplied by Falkirk Council in 2005
Falkirk Council, declined to provide a list of such assets since the cost would be prohibitive. Specifically, they stated that,
"As our property records are not yet electronic your request would result in a very lengthy and time consuming process of manually looking at appproximately 14,000 title deed cards in our system to determine the holding Account. It would therefore seem unlikely that your request could be processed in nterms of the Act given the resource implications."
Common Good Fund
Grangemouth has a Common Good Fund with a balance of £ 25,000 at 31 March 2006. See Common Good accounts for 2005-06.
My Commentary
How can the Council not know what Common Good assets it manages when those same assets are valued in the Accounts? Or perhaps "investment assets" means something else?
Further research is needed to determine what assets (if any) belong to Grangemouth Common Good Fund.
