Local government ombudsman

Subject: Freedom of Information request - Local government ombudsman

The Mayor would like to thank you for your interest in his work and he is
keen to answer your query as fully as possible. As you will appreciate, he
has received a very large amount of correspondence from Londoners since
the election and it is proving quite challenging to respond as quickly as
we would like.

Please note that non Greater London Authority (GLA) related queries will
be referred to the appropriate functional body for them to reply e.g.
transport related queries will be referred to Transport for London (TfL).

However, the Mayor is committed to responding to all appropriate
correspondence and everything is being done to reply to your query as
quickly as possible.

This is an automated message and therefore does not require any response.

Dear Sir or Madam

Thank you for your recent request for information regarding maladministration and local government.

The answer to each of the three questions you raised is as follows:

1) No findings of maladministration against our organisation and therefore the answers to questions two and three is none.

Yours sincerely

Lucy Davies
Legal Adviser
Legal & Procurement
Greater London Authority

Dear Sir or Madam,

I would like to know,

a) how many findings of maladministration the local government
ombudsman has made against your council over the last 10 years.

b) how many findings of maladministration your council, either in
full or in part, has refused to accept.

c) how many findings of maladministration your council has accepted
but refused to comply, either in full or in part, with the local
government ombudsman's recommended remedy.

Yours faithfully,

A Johnson (Mrs)
