Julian Todd made this Freedom of Information request to Department for Communities and Local Government
The request was successful.
From: Julian Todd
24 July 2008
Dear Sir or Madam,
I have noticed on many local government webpages, statements such
as:
"We have a provisional allocation of £49.3m Private Finance
Initiative credits from Central Government."[1]
I have scrutinized the relevant sections of the DCLG website,[2]
and do not see information of this nature being disclosed.
May I please be sent a link to, or emailed a copy of a table of
information containing all allocations of PFI credits at any stage
of the process (provisional, endorsed, etc), as well as relevant
details that one would expect to see in such a table (date, cost,
location, special conditions, etc).
I am aware of one website hosting a database of operational
projects.[3] But since it lacks any reference to allocations of
credits (including the Liverpool Central Library project
announcement), it does not contain the information I am looking
for.

Dear Simon Oliver,
Thank you very much for this fine response. I look forward to this
information being available on the webpage as standard.
What now remains to be made available is a depository of all
Outline Business Cases, Endorsement Letters, Contracts, etc, etc,
etc for each and PFI in the table, but I'll leave that for someone
else to look into.
For avoidance of doubt, this email is not an FOI request. It is
just a message of thanks.
Yours sincerely,
Julian Todd.
