Dear Torrens, Ann,

My request of 29 March 2016 refers.

By my reckoning your Department has now had more that 20 working days to deal with my request. That being so they are now in breach of their obligations under the Freedom of Information Act. I am sure I need not remind you of your Department's obligations under this legislation.

As a first step to bringing the Department into compliance with regards this request I would ask that by return you confirm the date by which a response to my request will be issued.

I look forward to hearing from you by return.

In the meantime for the record I have copied this exchange to the Office of the Information Commissioner.

Yours sincerely,

Richard Hamilton

Torrens, Ann, Department of Finance (Northern Ireland)
