Institutional abuse and Evictions of Care Home Residents

Doug Paulley made this Freedom of Information request to Isle of Anglesey Council

The request was successful.

From: Doug Paulley

25 June 2010

Dear Isle of Anglesey Council,

1) Please supply information relating to the incidence of attempts
by care providers to evict residents in care homes - that is, care
providers giving residents notice to leave or otherwise attempting
to get them to leave without their involvement in the decision or
against their wishes.

Please indicate the number of cases you are aware of for the last 3
years, also indicating if and how your council responded to the
situation, and what was the ultimate result of the sitaution, i.e.
if and how the situation was resolved.

2) Please provide me with the number of instances your council is
aware of where either CQC or local authority safeguarding
procedures have substantiated allegations of insitutional abuse of
a Leonard Cheshire social care service user over the past 3 years.

Further, please provide anonymised information on the alleged
behaviour by Leonard Cheshire resulting in the conclusion.

Yours faithfully,

Doug Paulley

Dear Isle of Anglesey Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of
Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Isle of Anglesey
Council's handling of my FOI request 'Institutional abuse and
Evictions of Care Home Residents'.

The request has gone beyond the 20 working day limit for responses,
and I have had no progress report or anything, despite sending a
chasing email.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is
available on the Internet at this address:

Yours faithfully,

Dear Mr. Paulley,

I write to advise you that the Council has attempted to post its
response to your request by email on a number of occasions. It
appears that the response to your request has not been received by
the website, possibly because the Council's emails are not being
accepted by the website. Our ICT Service assures me that the emails
were sent by the Council. The administrators of the WDTK.com
website have been advised about this issue. We hope that this issue
can be resolved soon.

I have posted this response through the website and not through the
email address supplied by WDTK.com.

I regret that technical issues have hindered the provision of
information that you have requested in line with your rights.

Sincerely,

Huw Pierce Pritchard Corporate Information Officer

I have >>> LEGA LPOLICY CYFRAITH POLISI 04/08/2010 13:15 >>> Mr

Please confirm receipt of this e-mail.

Regards, Beryl Jones Information Compliance Officer.

Mr Paulley I confirm that I have e-mailed a reply to you on the
