Council Expenditure or Payment to Suppliers from July to December 2020

The request was successful.

Dear Inverclyde Council,

I'd like to make a request under the Freedom of Information act for all transactions over £500 from 1st July 2020 to 31st December 2020. As a minimum, please make sure to include the date, value and recipient of each transaction. Please also provide details on the procurement category of each transaction if you have it & any additional descriptors.

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 following 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 the categories 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 suppliers from July to December 2020 - preferably in CSV format. For avoidance of doubt, I am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act. I await your response in ~20 working days.

Thank you,
Yours faithfully,
Nikhil Prabhu

Dear Nikhil Prabhu

On behalf of the HSCP, I apologise for the delay in responding to your request for information on 10th February 2021. This is due to the impact of Covid-19 on the HSCP/Council and the fact that the HSCP/Council's organisational resources have been diverted to work on other high priority areas.

I now write in relation to your Freedom of Information request and note our response attached. I attach a copy of our review policy in case you are dissatisfied with any aspect of this response.

Kind Regards
Ryan
