Presence of asbestos and mould in Thirteen Group homes

Iona made this Freedom of Information request to Thirteen Group
This authority is not subject to FOI law, so is not legally obliged to respond (details).
This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

Response to this request is long overdue. Although not legally required to do so, we would have expected Thirteen Group to have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Thirteen Group,
I am requesting information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. Specifically I am wanting data on how many complaints were received by Thirteen from their tenants regarding the presence of asbestos and mould between 2016-2020, broken down by area, and by calendar year. I would like to know how many of these complaints were resolved successfully, how many are still ongoing, and how many have been referred to higher authorities as a result of the dissatisfaction of the tenants. If possible I would also like statistics on how long it took for the successful cases to be resolved.

Yours faithfully,

Iona Peers

Dear Customer Services,

I recently sent an FOI request entitled 'Number of cases in which parents refuse to pay'. The response is now late. I understand that, given the circumstances, the normal timeframe is unrealistic. However I would like to remind you, in the event that my request may have been lost in the unusual situation we all find ourselves in, that I am still awaiting a response with the relevant information.

Yours sincerely,

Iona
