Dear Cardiff Council,

I was looking for a more comprehensive list of data. The information on your website is very brief and broad.

Yours faithfully,

[name removed]

FOI / Rhyddid Gwybodaeth, Cardiff Council

Hi [name removed],

Thank you for your email. We can send your request to the service area however we will require you to be more specific on the data you are requesting. Are you asking for a list of what all Direct Payments were used for? We can only provide recorded data under FOI legislation so we wouldn’t be able to provide what payments are commonly used for as that would be opinion based depending on what the service area defined as common.

We would also need a date range for our search e.g. Direct Payment over the last 12 months etc

Kind regards

Dear FOI / Rhyddid Gwybodaeth,

Yes you can provide a list of what direct payments were used for if this is easier. As for the period it would be useful to have 2 sets of data due to Covid interruptions. So, the first set I am requesting is for the period March 1st 2022 - March 1st 2023. The second period I am requesting is for January 1st 2019 - January 1st 2020.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Cardiff Council,

I have further refined my request which I have included in full below. I hope this helps.

☆For the attention of Adult Social Services☆

The term data in the heading above refers to the actual activity/service/goods that a direct payment was/is used for and not just the broader category that it falls within. Of course, the broader category can be included as well. Where direct payments are used for personal assistants (PA), these can be excluded from the dataset.

The primary purpose of this request is to receive a full breakdown of how individual users spend their direct payments. The amount of each payment would be very useful but not essential. The total direct payment amount each person receives is useful though and this can be displayed weekly or monthly or whichever is easiest for you.

So, to re-iterate, please provide all data in relation to how direct payments are specifically being used by users aged 24 - 54 and all other age groups can be excluded. The more comprehensive and detailed this list is, the more useful it will be for this FOI request. For example, data showing DPs being used for a gym membership (including how much it costs) would be far more valuable than data showing DPs being used for "leisure activities" which would be too broad; nonspecific and unhelpful.

If you require dates to extract this data could you extract it from either of the following financial years (preferably both):

• 2018-2019
• 2022-2023

I appreciate that this data can be quite laborious at times, especially if extracting the data from a manual trawl of individual care and support plans. It may or may not be easier to consider past audits and current monitoring systems to extract the same data and always remember to keep it within the age parameters of 24 - 54 which should exclude the majority of users.

To compliment the core request, could you kindly send me your direct payments policy including your practice guidance for practitioners. Could you also send me your Care and Support Planning Policy along with your practice guidance for practitioners. Please send any other policies you feel are relevant or related to the policies and practice guidance documents requested above.

Yours faithfully,

Dear [name removed]

Thank you for your request for information about : Could you provide a
list of what direct payments were used for, for the periods:

1) 01/01/2019 to 01/01/2020
2) 01/03/2022 to 01/03/2023
You have asked 'of the 216 cases, could you extract the information from
200 of them selected at random. This will ensure it stays below the £450
threshold? which was received on 13/06/2023'

The department reasonably requires further information in order to
identify and locate the information that you have asked for.

We applied a section 12 to FOI19527 due to the hours it would take to
investigate this matter for you. The exemption outlines a reduced period
to ensure officers have the resources to assist/aid any request. A random
selection of records is not a suitable method to capture information.
Therefore, as per the exemption, we advise you limit the time frame, say
months (1-2 mth period within a particular financial year). This should
facilitate a response. 

We will not be able to take this matter further without extra information
from you.

Please remember to quote the reference number above in any future
communications.
