Annie Callanan - independent chair of safeguarding adults board at L B Croydon

We're waiting for martyn lewis to read a recent response and update the status.

Dear Croydon Borough Council,

Please confirm if the Chief Executive of the Council is required to be informed by the independent chair of the safeguarding adults board, Annie Callanan, of the current investigation of complaints by the Local Government Ombudsman, that relate to her and her actions as chair of the current adult safeguarding board of West Sussex CC.

Please also confirm if there are any rules within your authority that preclude an independent safeguarding adults chair from holding numerous chair positions. My understanding is that Annie Callanan currently holds safeguarding adult board chair roles at West Sussex, LB Bexley and L B Croydon.

Yours faithfully,

Martyn Lewis - brother and legal deputy of Gary Lewis

Dear Croydon Borough Council,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Croydon Borough Council's handling of my FOI request 'Annie Callanan - independent chair of safeguarding adults board at L B Croydon'.

The response of the Council is now overdue and potentially signifies a lack of effective resource applied to this matter.

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

Yours faithfully,

Dear FOI,

As your response does not answer either of the 2 questions posed, I still require an internal review.

Hopefully this will produce the answers to the questions put and highlight your authorities inability or lack of desire to answer straight and specific questions.

Please also note / review that your letter of response is dated 10 November so could not have been issued to me on 6 November.

Yours sincerely,

Internal Review Request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000

Our reference: Internal Review 10206

Dear Mr Lewis,

I acknowledge receipt of your request for an internal review dated 10
November 2018 regarding the council’s response to your request for
information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOI) relating to
the safeguarding adults board (request ref. F/CRT/10010206).

Your complaint regarding the way the council has processed your request
for information has been passed to me, to investigate, and respond to you.

I am sorry you are dissatisfied with the council’s response to your FOI
request. The Information Commissioner’s Office allows a time limit of 20
to 40 working days to investigate and provide a full response to internal
review requests under the FOI. The council aims to complete this task
within 20 working days. I therefore calculate that a full response will be
provided to you by 07 December 2018.

Yours sincerely

Internal Review Request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000

Our reference: Internal Review 10206

Dear Mr Lewis,

I write regarding your request for an internal review, received on 10
November 2018.

As was explained in my acknowledgement of your internal review request,
the Information Commissioner’s Office recommends a time limit of 20 to 40
working days to investigate and provide a full response to internal
reviews under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. Unfortunately, due to
current workload, it has not been possible to complete my discussions with
the relevant departments, and finalise the internal review response within
the 20 working day deadline which falls today (07 December 2018). I am
therefore extending this deadline by a further 20 working days to 10
January 2019. 

I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you. I hope to send you
my response well before 10 January.

Yours sincerely

 

Sarah Kelly

Dear Croydon Borough Council,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Croydon Borough Council's handling of my FOI request 'Annie Callanan - independent chair of safeguarding adults board at L B Croydon'.

L B Croydon has FAILED to answer whether the Chief Exec is REQUIRED to be advised of related complaints by the Chair of the Adult Safeguarding Board or whether rules exist within L B Croydon that limit the number of such appointments that the chair can hold.

L B Croydon is clearly trying to dodge answering the clear question put. Please review the answer provided meets the question put and confirm accordingly.

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