Dear Mr Abraham,
Thank you for your information request of 17th October 2008 under the
Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA). Aberdeen City
Council (ACC) has completed the necessary search for the information
requested.
The following information can be supplied:
Please could you provide information on the usage and revenue of Bon
Accord Baths in 2005, in terms of:
1) Income calculated for the year
Income for the year (previously provided to you) was £327,943
2) How this income was calculated
The income included all monies received through the till (direct
admissions), through groups invoiced (schools, clubs, etc) and swimming
lessons. It included multi-pass "splash" cards or similar.
3) Admission figures for Bon Accord Baths, categorised by studio,
class, swimming or other.”’
We are unable to provide details of the admission numbers as
requested.
We are unable to provide you with Admission Figures as this information
is not held by the Council. In order to comply with its obligations
under the terms of section 17 of the Freedom of Information (Scotland)
Act 2002 (FOISA) the Council must issue an official notice in relation
to any requests for information not held by it. I therefore attach an
Information Not Held notice.
Aberdeen City Council do not record the information requested down to
the criteria in your request.
We hope this helps with your enquiry.
Yours sincerely,
