Dear Mr MacLean,
Thank you for your Freedom of Information request received on the 23rd June, regarding the training organisation Common Purpose.
You asked NHS South East Coast, the Strategic Health Authority (SHA) for the region, to supply details of any expenditure on Common Purpose courses for each year between 1997 and 2008.
NHS South East Coast was established on the 1st July 2006, following a merger between the two former health authorities in the region, the Surrey and Sussex SHA and Kent and Medway SHA.
No payments have been made to Common Purpose since the current SHA was established on the 1st July 2006. Details of any expenditure on Common Purpose courses which may have been made by the SHA's predecessor organisations is not held by NHS South East Coast.
If you are unhappy with this response please let us know, giving your reasons. It will then be considered by one of our executive directors who will respond in writing. This letter will also include details about how to contact the Information Commissioner.
I hope this information is helpful.
Yours sincerely,
Sarah Whitehead
Communications Officer (Public Affairs)
NHS South East Coast
