FOI Request - Special Leave Applications

Request 101003848903

1. Please can you advise how many Special Leave applications have been made by employees asking for time off due to a relative, e.g. son or daughter, having a car accident and how many of those were approved/denied as paid special leave.

I am specifically interested in anyone asking for one day of Special Leave but would appreciate any information you can give me so if it can't be broken down to that level of specificity I don't mind. Please could you also include the start and end date the data covers.
