Hi, I requested some data on HC2 and HC3 claimants prior to the FOI came into force, and have only just noticed that the requirements of the initial request haven''t quite been matched. I attach the previous email correspondents with ??????. Hi ??????, As discussed on the telephone, we are currently working for the Scottish Executive Health Department investigating the distribution of NHS sight tests and voucher claims across Scotland. To conduct this we are wishing to use data on the distribution of HC2 and HC3 vouchers across Scotland. To be precise: *the number of people claiming HC2 vouchers by postcode sector (first 5 digits e.g. AB1 0, or AB251) by age group (0-4, 5-14, 15-24, 25-44, 45-64, 65-74, 75-84, 85+); and *the same for HC3. At initial glance the original request was almost there, but then i noticed that some of the postcodes were only four not five digits. i.e. AB1 3 is different from AB13 etc. Basically i don''t want the last two letters of a postcode. Happy to discuss further - this request is similar to a rework of a recently received FOI request number 258419. Thanks
