Dear Cabinet Office,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Cabinet Office's handling of my FOI request 'Preparing for Labour Gov 1992'.

You have already had one extension, that is enough. Stop taking abusing my information rights.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/p...

Dear Edward Williams,
Thank you for your email,

While the process of responding to your request for information is ongoing
it will not be possible to conduct an internal review.

It is occasionally necessary to extend the 20 working day time limit for
issuing a response. The Freedom of Information act allows a public body to
extend the 20 working day time limit in order to consider the balance of
the public interest in relation to a request.

Please be assured that we will respond to your request once the balance of
public interest has been considered. 

Kind Regards

FOI Team

Dear FOI Team Mailbox,

I am still waiting for the reply. As soon as you refuse I can ask for the IR. You are just being vexatious.

Internal reviews only apply to decisions regarding the release of information. They have already apologized for the delay. There is no outcome that can be changed by a review, making the request pointless.

IR2021/15801), which was prompted by our response to your request for

within 20 working days.
