Dear  

Request for Information – ATISN 16055

I wrote to you on 10 February regarding your request for information.  You asked for -

1. A breakdown of the total number of houses purchased under Compulsory Purchase Orders for road construction schemes in Wales in the last 5 years.
2. The location of the house, the date purchased, the cost of purchase and whether they have been sold or not.

You confirmed on 15 February that for location you meant the town/village.

Our Response

I can confirm that we hold the information requested which is enclosed below.

Next steps

If you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you can ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response.  Requests for an internal review should be addressed to the Welsh Government’s Freedom of Information Officer at: Information Rights Unit, Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ or Email: Freedom.ofinformation@gov.wales.  Please remember to quote the ATISN reference number above.   

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner.  The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:  Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF.  However, please note that the Commissioner will not normally investigate a complaint until it has been through our own internal review process.

Yours sincerely
