Treatment of Freedom of Information Requests - Subjects - Outcomes - Time to Respond

Marlon Campbell made this Freedom of Information request to Islington Borough Council

The request was successful.

From: Marlon Campbell

19 January 2010

Dear Islington Borough Council,

For the 100 most recent FOI requests which the council considers
closed, be that because the request was rejected, met, or declared
"not held", please provide the following information:

(1) The date the request was received by the council.

(2) The summary subject of the request - in less than 20 words

(3) The date the request was acknowledged.

(4) The date the initial final response was given

(5) The status of this response, ie met, not held, rejected

(6) Whether an Internal Review was requested, and if so the date on
which this was completed and the outcome status

(7) Whether the FOI Request to the council's knowledge was referred
to the ICO.

(8) Whether the ICO issued any guidance or instruction to the
council following this referral.

(9) The final outcome after the ICO referral.

It is understood that a case may be referred to the ICO after the
council regards it a closed, and so this list request may not be
final and definitive, but at any given time, a FOI Request must be
either open or closed as far as the council, is considered.

This FOI Request is asking about the situation when it is
processed, and a snapshot should be taken, with the date of this
recorded in the reply.

As most of this information must already be held electronically for
administrative reasons by the council, it should not be onerous to
provide it.

Please provide this electronically, preferably in an XLS
spreadsheet.

Yours faithfully,

Marlon Campbell

Dear Mr Campbell

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REF No: 305817

Thank you for your email.

I have enlarged the spreadsheet to highlight:

1) those requests which were partial disclosures (e.g. where an
exemption of the act was applied to part of the request, but some
information was released) and which exemptions were applier.

2) I have also provided (nos. 101-105 on the spreadsheet) the 5 requests
over this period which were deemed to be fully exempt, and the relevant
exemptions applied.

I hope this provides you with the information you require. Please
contact me if you wish to make a further request for information.

Best wishes
