Council marked the request 'completed' and provided the response only via an external hosted portal link (knowsleytransaction.mendixcloud.com), not an attachment on WhatDoTheyKnow itself; content could not be accessed or extracted by this research pass.

Caveat: Status is 'Successful' (figures were disclosed) but delivered off-platform via an external portal link that could not be followed. Only found via cross-reference from a neighbouring council's 'requests like this' list — an independent direct search of Knowsley's WhatDoTheyKnow page was not separately performed and may surface additional requests (e.g. an LBC REQUEST response).
