Dear Ms Davies.

 

We are completing your Freedom of Information Act request of 25^th January
2012.

 

I’ve been asked to clarify the definition of “places” you use in question
4 on day centres. 

 

Do you need to know number of sessions and how many people can attend per
day?  If so do you need the information aggregated for the year as a
whole, or expressed per month or per day?

Dear Mike,

Thanks for your message.

In qu 4, I'm looking for the number of people who attended day
services funded by the LA across the year - if you only have the
information broken down by sessions, days or months I'm happy to
receive it in that form.

Let me know if you need any further clarification.

Yours sincerely,

Jo Davies
