Concessionary travel passes

Robert Eriksohn made this Freedom of Information request to Cornwall Council

The request was successful.

From: Robert Eriksohn

30 January 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

It is my understanding that the travel concession authorities in
Cornwall have delegated their responsibilities to the county
council, as such I am sending the bellow FOI request to yourselves.

I would like to make a request as regards to the concessionary
travel arrangements in your authority under the terms of Freedom of
Information Act.

1. Does your authority provide concessionary travel passes to those
individuals registered with their local Social Services department
as disabled on the grounds of being a mental health user or
survivor?

2. If your authority does have such arrangements why was the
decision taken to extend the scheme in this way and what
arrangements are in place?

3. If your authority does not have such arrangements does your
authority have some other arrangement beyond the statuary minimum
to provide passes to those with mental health issues?

4. If your authority does not have such arrangements why was the
decision taken not to extend the scheme in this way and has
consideration been given to extending the scheme in this way in the
future?

5. Would it be possible to provide copies of any relevant policy
documents you may have?

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Yours faithfully,

Robert Eriksohn
