Dear Clackmannanshire Council,
I notice that I have not received a reply to my FOI. Could you confirm that this is because you don't hold the information?
Look forward to hearing from you
Yours faithfully,
Abbie Matthews
Dear Abbie,
Many apologies for this oversight. I have looked into it and it appears
that another FOI from you was recorded twice that this one was
accidentally not registered. I will register it immediately and ask for a
response as soon as possible. You will see a confirmation when this is
registered.
Kind regards,
Sam Neary
Business Support Officer
PA to Carolyn Wyllie
Head of community Health and Care

Thank you for your information request dated 11/05/2023.
I am happy to supply you with the information you requested.

The Contract to which FOI refers was a joint Contract across
Clackmannanshire, Falkirk and Stirling Councils and NHS Forth Valley,
which has expired and was replaced by a new iteration of this contract,
which was advertised through Public Contracts Scotland. Both agreements
were let by Stirling Council on behalf of the Partners.
Information requested in relation to the contract, monitoring and
performance, procurement process, annual spend (aggregate / by partner)
etc. is held by Stirling Council as contracting authority. Please
redirect your enquiry to Stirling Council - [email address] and
colleagues in Stirling will respond through local arrangements.

Professional/Independent Advocacy on an issue based system for individuals
with a statutory requirement for advocacy under: Adults with Incapacity
(Scotland) Act 2000, Mental Health (Care and Treatment) (Scotland) Act
2003, Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) Act 2007. This would
include individuals with Learning Disabilities eligible to access Advocacy
Services under the 3 Acts noted.
Yours sincerely
