This email originated from outside of the organisation. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognise the sender and know the content is safe. If unsure, please contact ghcit@ghc.nhs.uk
I am writing to you to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. Please send me:
• Total spend on the use of clinical insourcing not agency/locum or outsourcing. in the current 2020/21 financial year. Please breakdown this FY only into each month.
• Total spend on the use of clinical insourcing not agency/locum or outsourcing. in the 2019/20 financial year.
• Total spend on the use of clinical insourcing not agency/locum or outsourcing. in the 2018/19 financial year.
• Total spend on the use of clinical insourcing not agency/locum or outsourcing. in the 2017/18 financial year.
I would like the above information to be provided to me via excel to this email address.
Insourcing – not to be confused with outsourcing – is where a third party provider of secondary care uses an NHS organisation’s premises and equipment to deliver extra clinical capacity, outside of when they are normally in use. In most cases it is essentially an extension of a hospital’s existing clinical service.
If this request is too wide or unclear, I would be grateful if you could contact me as I understand that under the Act, you are required to advise and assist requesters. I have already searched to see if any of this information is already in the public domain including via your own site. so please respond via the request.
If the release of any of this information is prohibited on the grounds of breach of confidence, I ask that you supply me with copies of the confidentiality agreement and remind you that information should not be treated as confidential if such an agreement has not been signed.
I understand that you are required to respond to my request within the 20 working days after you receive this letter. I would be grateful if you could confirm in writing that you have received this request.

Yes, please could the trust still try to answer all of the questions it can. I understand that questions 4 and 5 and possibly 6. may not be answerable due to this information only be recorded in patient notes. However, I hope that trust is still able to provide some information for questions 1-3 and questions 7 and 8. Kind regards, Alex

Thank you for your recent Freedom of Information request. In order to respond to your request our information teams are seeking the below clarification:
• We would only be able to provide information for questions 1, 2 and 3. The information around self-harm is text recorded in the patient notes and therefore not reportable. Therefore, with this in mind would you still like the Trust to answer questions 1-3 only?
Would you be able to provide clarification around the information you are expecting the response to include for this question?
