Request

I am writing to make a formal request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. I am interested in understanding the procedures and policies related to the mailing of small items (weighing less than 1kg) to members of the public within your local authority's jurisdiction. This information is crucial for research and analysis purposes. Specifically, I would appreciate your assistance in providing the following details:


1.    Small Items Mailed to the Public: Please provide a list of small items that your local authority, or its commissioned providers, regularly mails to members of the public. These items can include but are not limited to nicotine replacement therapy for smoking cessation, contraception for sexual health services, reusable shopping bags, COVID-19 tests, or any other items of a similar nature.


2.    Responsibility Departments: Kindly specify which departments within your local authority are responsible for the issuance and distribution of these items. For example, if nicotine replacement therapy is issued, please indicate which department oversees this process (e.g., the Public Health Department).


3.    Contact Information: Please provide the names and contact email addresses of the individuals who are responsible for the management of the departments mentioned in item #2. This will enable me to reach out for further clarification if necessary.
