From: Amanda Walker

Dear Blackpool Borough Council,
I am interested in the amounts paid by each school in Blackpool
LEA to third parties in relation to temporary agency staffing
cover. My
hope is to receive an electronic breakdown of amounts paid
through the department's purchase ledger by school.
Notes:
1. I would like the information in electronic format. This should
avoid any printing cost issues.
2. In order to avoid your having to collate information from
peripheral systems, I am willing to accept information only from
your main system (I would like you to advise which system this is).
By main system I mean the system that handles the largest part of
the department's expenditure. If supplier payments are
made through separate systems, then I would like you to choose the
main system for each.
3. The information I require for each school is: School Name;
Supplier name and total amount paid.
4. I would like the information to cover the year 2009/10
Yours faithfully,
Amanda Walker

Subject: Freedom Of Information Request
Dear Amanda
I am writing to confirm that we have now completed our search for the
information you requested on 4 June 2010 - please find the information
attached noting the omission of St Mary's RC High School and Layton
Primary. This is because they are cheque book schools and are run off
their own systems of which the Council does not have access to.
The system used to extract the data is from Cedar, our financial ledger.
If you have a complaint about the handling of your request you may ask for
an internal review and you should submit this in writing to: Council
Complaint, Blackpool Council, PO Box 50, Town Hall, Blackpool, FY1 1NA.
If you are not happy with the outcome of the review, you have the right to
apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. You can
contact the Information Commissioner at: Information Commissioner's
Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF,
([1]www.informationcommissioner.gov.uk).
