Dear Craig,

I am writing in response to your email below requesting information from
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (the UHB) under the terms of the
Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).

The FOIA gives individuals the right to request and receive any recorded
information held by a public authority, such as the UHB, subject to any
applicable statutory exemptions. A request can be made for any information
it is thought a public authority may hold. The right only extends to
recorded information which includes information held on computers, in
emails and in printed or handwritten documents, as well as images, videos,
and audio recordings.

A request can take the form of a question, rather than a request for
specific documents, but an authority does not have to answer your question
if this would mean creating new information or giving an opinion or
judgement that is not already recorded.

As you are making a request under the FOIA, the UHB will consider your
request in accordance with the legislation and in line with the
appropriate guidance issued by the Information Commissioner as detailed
below.

The UHB will:

• identify which questions amount to requests for information held on
record;
• be ready to offer advice and assistance that is reasonable in the
circumstances; and
• provide a response in line with the requirements of the legislation.

I would now like to confirm that your request has been forwarded to the
relevant department to action. A further response will be issued in due
course.

As your request is being dealt with under the FOIA, there is a deadline of
20 working days for a response to be issued.

Yours sincerely,

Guillaume

Dear Craig Dixhuit,

I am writing further to the below e-mail issued in acknowledgement of your
Freedom of Information Act request to Cardiff and Vale University Health
Board (the UHB).

To assist the UHB in identifying and retrieving the information you are
seeking, please could you provide the following clarification:

• Is the total cost of repair works relating to this year specifically?
Also is the information related purely to repairs which are generally
reactive or backlog maintenance?

Please note that this request will remain open for two months. If no
clarification is received during this period, the request will then be
closed. Should you wish to discuss any of the above please do not hesitate
to contact me.

If you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your
request and wish to make a complaint or request a review of our decision,
you should write to:

Head of Risk and Regulation
Cardiff and Vale University Local Health Board
Executive Headquarters
University Hospital of Wales
Heath Park
Cardiff
CF14 4XW

If you are not content with the outcome of any complaint, you may apply
directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally the
Information Commissioners Office cannot make a decision unless you have
exhausted the complaints procedure provided by the UHB.

The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:
