Dear Mr Ugboma,

Freedom of Information request RFI/09005

Thank you for your Freedom of Information request, shown below.

Our response is as follows:-

There are currently no Royal Borough of Greenwich foster carers who are
Royal Borough of Greenwich councillors.

We do not hold information on Royal Borough of Greenwich councillors who
may be foster carers for other agencies.

Should you find the information below helpful, I have provided:-

·          a link to the website and the membership of the Children and
Young People Scrutiny Panel, the executive Member with responsibility for
Children’s Services is Councillor John Fahy (Deputy Leader of the
Council).

Councillor John Fahy:

·         A link to the membership of the Children and Young People
Scrutiny Panel:

·         In relation to the wider question, we do not hold ‘general’
information on Members’ connections with Children’s Services but all
councillors will have some relationship with the function in their role as
elected representatives.  A full list of councillors and their contact
details is published to the website.  Each Member’s page also includes a
link to their Register of Interest form and this may include information
being sought.  Below is a link to the A – Z listing of councillors:-

are dissatisfied.

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the Internal Review, you may
apply directly to the Information Commissioner (ICO) for a decision. 
Generally, the ICO cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the
Internal Review procedure provided by the Council.
