Dear Ms Moore

I refer to the attached FOI request and can inform you that responsibility for Social Services within the Scarborough Borough area lies with the North Yorkshire County Council, and I have therefore, copied the Data Management Officer at the County Council into this email and a response will be sent to you in accordance with the terms of the Freedom of Information Act.

For your information, contact details for FOI requests for the North Yorkshire County Council are:

Dear Ms Moore

Your FOI request submitted to Scarborough Borough Council has been passed on to us, as we are responsible for Social Care in that area. However, you have already submitted the same request directly to North Yorkshire County Council, so we are already processing your request for the county of North Yorkshire as a whole, of which the borough of Scarborough is a part. We will reply to you within 20 working days of receipt regarding the figures for NYCC.

I trust that this is satisfactory, but please don't hesitate to contact me again if you have any further queries.

Kind regards

Miriam Townsend, for

Data Management Officer
North Yorkshire County Council
