Dear Freedom of Information questions/information requests,

I made a Freedom of Information request on 7th October, which is
now overdue a response.

In not providing a response within the 20 working-day limit of 4th
November, you are now breaking the law. Therefore I am requesting
an internal review.

The information requested is below:

On 17 September, Graham Badman via a DCSF email made a further call
for evidence to Local Authorities regarding the Review/Report into
Elective Home
Education.

I am requesting your response to that call.

The documents requested by the DCSF can be found at the link below:
http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/everychildmatters/
publications/documents/laeelectivehomeeducation/

Note I have inserted a space before the word 'publications' to
ensure the link is visible.

Please note that I am NOT requesting your Public Consultation
response.

Please supply the information requested as a matter of urgency.

Yours sincerely,

S Tyler
