Dear Dundee City Council,

By "transactions", I mean each item of expense by the Council. Which is the same as each payment remitted to an Individual or Supplier, by the Council.

Dear Mr Prabhu
In regards to your request reference 20190801005, can you be more specific
with a timescale and what you are looking for ie which type of suppliers.
As it stands we would refuse your request due to excessive cost under the
Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.

Dear Dundee City Council,

Thank you for your response.

If it would help, I am specifically looking for payments to suppliers who provide a service in Health and Social Care. This would include all suppliers falling under the categories :-

1. Payments to suppliers who provide fostering and adoption services to the Council
2. Payments to suppliers who provide care services to the council. This would include suppliers who provide care under each of below -
a. Children's Residential/ Nursing Care Providers
b. Adult Residential/ Nursing Care Providers
c. Elderly Residential/ Nursing Care Providers
d. Domiciliary Care Home Providers
e. Supported Living Care Home Providers
f. Care at Home Providers
g. Providers who carry out Homeless Services
3. Payments to suppliers who provide Special Education Services

In particular I am looking for itemized transactions for these suppliers from 1st January 2019 - 30th June 2019 - preferably in CSV format. This narrowed down request should help it fall under the appropriate limit for FOISA.

Yours Faithfully,
Nikhil Prabhu
