Dear Mr Wiltshire
Request for Information Thank you for your recent email, which requested information in pursuance of the Freedom
of Information Act. For clarification, you requested the following:
Could you please supply data on the monies offered in grants for the last 3 years to regional
authorities to set up / provide accommodation for gypsies and travellers, how much was
actually used and how many new pitches were provided. Please do not supply data on
existing refurbished pitches.
I have now had the opportunity to investigate your request for information, and can confirm
that the information you are seeking is not held by the Homes and Communities Agency.
We would recommend that you redirect your request for information to the Department for
Communities and Local Government. Please email your request to
[email address]. Alternatively, you may use the online contact form at
