Subject: Freedom of Information request - Concessionary travel passes Auto
forwarded by a Rule

Dear Sir or Madam,

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
