Children in care/Child protection
Dear Wandsworth Borough Council,
Under the Freedom of Information Act, please list/provide me with
the following information:
1. Number of Children who's cases were submitted to the 2011-2012
Children in Need Census at the point of the closing date of 31 July
2013.
2. Number of Children on the Child Protection Register (as of 31
July 2013)
3. Number of Looked After Children (as of 31 July 2013)
May I request that this data is broken down by ethnicity and that
you include with this a breakdown of ethnicity across the borough
as a whole.
I understand that requesting the numbers of cases by ethnicity,
there is no possibility of individuals' privacy being breached.
I understand that under the Act, I should be entitled to a response
within 20 working days of your receipt of this email.
Some parts of this request may be easier to answer than others.
Should this prove to be the case, I would ask that you release
available data as soon as possible - rather than hold up the entire
request.
I would prefer to receive this information electronically. If the
decision is made to withhold some of this data using exemptions
within the Act, please inform me of that fact and cite the
exemptions used.
If you need any clarification then please contact me at the number
below or via email. Under your section 16 duty to provide advice
and assistance I would expect you to contact me if you find this
request unmanageable in any way.
I would be grateful if you could confirm that you have received
this request, and I look forward to hearing from you in the near
future.
Yours faithfully,
KH
