Dear Mr Draper,
Thank you for your email of 16th June 2011 where you requested information
requesting copies of all briefings on any aspect of Education or Schools
prepared for Councillor Orhan by the Director or Assistant Directors of
Children Services or any other Senior Manager since May 2010.
From our preliminary assessment, it is clear that we will not be able to
answer your request without further clarification.
The London Borough of Enfield requires further information in order to
identify and locate the information you have asked for, please specify the
exact information you require. Please note that under the Freedom of
Information act you have the right of access to information, not specific
documents or correspondence.
Once you have clarified your request, I will be able to begin to process
your request. If I do not receive clarification within three months your
request will be considered to have lapsed. (Under section 1(3) of the
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), a public authority need not comply with
a request unless any further information reasonably required to locate the
information is supplied).
Please remember to quote the reference number 83 in any future
communications.
Yours sincerely,
Concetta Nobile

If your matter is urgent Please contact Helen Wilson

From: Helen Wilson
15 July 2011
Dear Mr Draper,
Thank you for your email of 20 June 2011 where you requested all advice
provided in briefings on any aspect of Education or Schools prepared for
Councillor Orhan by the Director or Assistant Directors of Children
Services or any other Senior Manager since May 2010.
From our preliminary assessment, it is clear that we will not be able to
answer your request . Under section 1(3) of the Freedom of Information Act
(FOIA), a public authority need not comply with a request unless any
further information reasonably required to locate the information is
supplied. If a request is too broad or general in nature, then public
authorities have a duty to provide advice and assistance to the applicant
in order to focus the request.
Section 12 of the Act makes provision for public authorities to refuse
requests for information where the cost of dealing with them would exceed
the appropriate limit, which for a local government authority is set at
£450. This represents the estimated cost of one person spending 18
hours in determining whether the department holds the information,
locating, retrieving and extracting the information.
We estimate that it will take us in excess of 18 hours to determine
appropriate material and locate, retrieve and extract the information in
reference to your request. Therefore, your request will not be processed
further.
If you narrow the scope of your request, we may be able to provide the
information. For instance, you may wish to refine your request by being
more specific about what information you particularly wish to obtain,
including any dates or period of time relevant to the information
required. Any reformulated request the department receives from you will
be treated as a fresh FOI request.
If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the
right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be
submitted within two months of the date of receipt of the response to your
original letter and should be addressed to:
Concetta Nobile
PO Box 63
Civic Centre
Silver Street
Enfield
EN1 3XW
Please remember to quote the reference 83 in any future communications.
If you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have
the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a
decision. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at: Information
Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9
5AF
Yours sincerely,
Concetta Nobile
London Borough of Enfield
