Provided service vehicles and subsistence claims

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service,

I understand that several employees have been allocated their own vehicles for use in conjunction with their jobs. Can you supply me with a breakdown of the amount of vehicles you have for this purpose, the amount per department, the amount per rank/role per department and the monthly & yearly cost to the service for each for the last 5 years in respect of each of these areas? Also is there any private use element to these vehicles and do the employees have to pay anything for them?
Finally I would like to know what rate Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service pays to it's employees for using their own car for business and the amounts paid in the last 5 years, with a breakdown for each department and rank/role if possible?

Yours faithfully,

P Enquirer

Dear Lesley Turpin,
The clarification I require relates to the original information request so therefore don't feel it needs another FOI, the request asked the following questions, but I don't have all the answers to them:
The request asked how many vehicles HFRS has allocated to employees, which you advised 61, but have only supplied a spreadsheet for the 31 business users showing the allocation dates with no contributions or private mileage.
Also I still require information for the remainder of the vehicles, excluding the 4 spares, with a breakdown of: Amount per Dept, Amount per Rank/Role, Monthly cost to HFRS, Yearly cost to HFRS.
I have also not bee advised what rate HFRS pays it's employees for using their own car for business, with a breakdown per year, Dept & Role.
I assume that HFRS purchased the Vauxhall Insignias outright and does not lease them, so I have assumed that the capital cost is £19500 x 61 = £1,189,500 , please confirm this.
Why do business users have to pay £157 per month if they only use the vehicle for business, and how was this figure arrived at, and how was the vehicle type/cost agreed?

Yours sincerely,

P Enquirer
