Case reference FOI2022/00255

Published 13 March 2023

Request

Request Received: 4 August 2022

Under the Freedom of Information Act, please could I request the following information:

1. Please can you provide a list of all grants distributed between 2020/2021 and 2021/2022, including information on the following:

a. Name of grant

b. Type of grant

c. Grant value

d. Volume of grants awarded

The table below is an example of the information required:

2. How many Full Time Equivalents (FTE's) did you employ to administer and process grants, and what was the cost in 2020/2021 and 2021/2022?

3. What technology system/s do you use to administer/process grants, and how much was spent on this technology in 2020/2021 and 2021/2022?

4. What was the development time required to create your most recent grant product/scheme? (probably don't track - how much time does it take to grant take). (how agile providers are - and we need to be).

Clarification Received: 25 August 2022

Regarding part 1 of my request, I am referring to all grants distributed between 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 - they may be active or not active.

Question 4 is related to actually setting up (development time) a new entire scheme (from the point a policy decision has been taken) in order to make it available for users. Not the time taken to process a single application.
