Dear Mr Burrows 
Request for Information â€“ ATISN 8384
Thank you for your request for information which I received on 22 April 2014. My 
understanding of what you have asked for is, the number of businesses that were 
advised/assisted under the New Business Start up service during the financial years of 
2012/2013 and 2013/2014 who registered for VAT.
Please note that my reply will be based on the support delivered through the New 
Business Starts project. Please let me know if this is not an accurate description of the 
information you have requested. 
The request you sent me contains personal data about you - for example, your name 
and e-mail address. I will only use this personal data in accordance with the Data 
Protection Act 1998 to deal with your request and any matters which arise as a result 
of it. I will keep your personal data and all other information relating to your request for 
three years from the date on which your request is finally closed.  Your personal data 
will then be disposed of securely.
I will be happy to advise and assist you further with this request. My contact details are 
at the foot of this letter. 
Any information released under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or Environmental 
Information Regulations 2004 will be listed in the Welsh Government’s Disclosure Log.
