FOI Request - Review of 101004024425 Self-Directed Support

Request 101004083384

Review of 101004024425 Self-Directed Support

The matter giving rise to my dissatisfaction is that the Council has failed to respond to my request within the statutory period. Under section 10(1) of the Act, the Council was required to comply promptly and, in any event, by no later than the twentieth working day after receipt. That deadline has passed and I have received no response, no fee notice, and no notice claiming any exemption or seeking clarification. The Council is accordingly in breach of its duty under section 10.

I require the Council to review its handling of this request and to provide the requested information without further delay. Please confirm receipt of this requirement.

For the avoidance of doubt, under section 21 of the Act the Council must complete its review and notify me of the outcome promptly and, in any event, by no later than the twentieth working day after receipt of this requirement. If the Council fails to respond within that period, or if I remain dissatisfied following the review, I intend to apply to the Scottish Information Commissioner under section 47.
