FOI 440 Internal Review
Dear L. Lluva,
I am writing further to our letter of 11 February 2010 regarding your request for an Internal
Review of our response to FOI 440 and to update you on what progress has been achieved to
date.
Please note that we have now located, printed, indexed and collated the information we hold
relevant to your request. Contrary to the initial assessment of the Internal Review Panel,
these aspects of the task have exceeded the 18 hour threshold provided for in the legislation.
However we still intend to comply with your request.
It is a large volume of information and the LDA team is currently reviewing the minutes,
papers and summary reports relating to the Olympic Delivery Committee (ODC) meetings.
Whilst reviewing these documents, they are also assessing whether any of the information is
exempt from disclosure including applying the public interest test and consulting with third
parties in instances where commercial information is provided under confidentiality clauses.
To allow sufficient time for the information to be reviewed by these relevant parties and in
view of the volume of information requested, it is our intention to release the information to
you in batches e.g. by calendar year, as the review progresses. Our intention is to complete
the entire exercise by 7 April 2010.
Please accept our apologies that we have been unable to provide this information to date, but
please be assured that we are doing everything possible to provide the requested information
as soon as is reasonably possible.
If you have any queries in the mean time please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours sincerely
Public Liaison Unit
London Development Agency
