Hi
I refer to your request dated 27 July, in which you asked for the information detailed in your email below.
I can advise you that the Council is able to respond to your request in full, and all the information you have sought is as follows;
From August 2014 to July 2023, the following services have not had their contract renewed:
Service 36 - Voe Shopper & Brae Health Centre Dial-a-Ride Service 40 - Sullom to Hillswick Surgery Dial-a-Ride Service 72 - West Yell Dial-a-Ride Service 16 - Bixter to Clousta Feeder & Clousta to Aith Shopper
Details prior to August 2014 are not held.
I trust this meets the terms of your request. However, if you are dissatisfied with the way in which the Council has dealt with your request for information on this occasion, then you may ask the authority to review its actions and decisions in relation to your request, by submitting a formal appeal to the Executive Manager - Governance and Law. A leaflet explaining this process is attached.
Kind Regards
Cherelynn
