Dear Warwickshire County Council,

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 Mr Paulley
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 - INFORMATION REQUEST
Thank you for your request for information which I acknowledge was
received by the County Council on 25/06/2010.
Your request is currently being considered. If the County Council is able
to provide you with the information you have requested, then under the
Freedom Of Information Act you are entitled to receive it within 20
working days.
For your information, the FOI Act defines a number of exemptions which may
prevent release of some or all of the information you have requested. The
County Council will assess your information request in light of the
exemptions. If exemptions do apply, then the County Council may decide
not to release all, or part, of the information you have requested. I
shall inform you if this is the case, and advise you of your rights of
appeal.
If the information you request contains reference to a third party then
they may be consulted prior to a decision being taken by the County
Council as to whether to release the information to you. You will be kept
informed if this is the case.
Any information provided to you would ordinarily be provided to you as a
paper copy, in normal font size. If you require an alternative format,
e.g. by e-mail, in a different language, or in audio, large print, etc.
then please let me know.
The County Council will not charge a fee to provide you with the

cost more than *450 to deal with then I will write to you again asking if
you are willing to pay the fees incurred, and setting out clearly what
those fees will be, in accordance with the FOI Act.
If you have any queries or should you wish to make a complaint about the
