Dear Sir/Madam,
I refer to your request for information regarding day services.
I can confirm that we are still in the process of dealing with your
enquiry, however, we believe we need clarification from you in relation to
question 7 in which you seek information regarding consultations.
We can confirm that there have been extensive consultations over the
period of time of the Day Modernisation Programme with individual clients
and their families, therefore, please can you specifically state what
information you are seeking in regard to the outcomes of consultations
with the public, as there have been few complaints/issues raised by the
public and there are no outstanding issues from families.
In the meantime, we will continue to process your request in relation to
the other points raised. Until we receive clarification from you regarding
question 7, this aspect of your request will be placed on hold. If you do
not respond by 21 February we will assume you do not wish to progress with
your enquiry.
