Dear Mr Jones

 

Freedom of Information Request ENQ-417851-K6T5H0

 

I refer to your request for information dated 20 July 2020.

 

You asked for:

 

o the name and job title of the individual in charge of your Childcare
Sufficiency Assessment within the council. I would also be grateful if
you can provide me with their contact details e.g. email address.

 

Your request has been considered and is refused. In accordance with the
Act, this letter acts as a Refusal Notice.

 

The County Council considers that the exemption under Section 40(2) of the
Act applies in this case. Section 40 provides that if the information
constitutes personal data about a third party and any of the data
protection principles would be contravened by the release of the
information, the County Council is not required to provide the
information.

 

Your request asks for the name of officers holding specific positions
within Norfolk County Council.

 

These individuals have a reasonable expectation that personal information
pertaining to them is not released without their consent for such
information to be released. This consent has not been provided. We
consider that releasing this information would therefore breach the fair
processing principle contained within the Data Protection Act.

 

We do not feel in this instance that there is any overriding public
interest consideration that would justify the disclosure of such personal
information. We also can see no purpose in disclosure, other than to form
the basis of a mailing list, for which there is no public interest.

 

Whilst we are unable to provide individual contact details, any Department
in the Council can be contacted via the methods shown on this webpage:
[1]https://www.norfolk.gov.uk/what-we-do-an...

 

If you are dissatisfied with our handling of your request you have the
right of appeal through the Council’s internal review procedure by setting
out the grounds of your appeal in writing to:

 

[2][email address]

or Information Compliance Team

Room 043

County Hall

Martineau Lane

Norwich

NR1 2DH

 

An appeal should be submitted within 40 working days of the date of this
notice and should be identified as "FOI Appeal".

 

If you are dissatisfied after pursuing the complaints procedure, you may
apply to the Information Commissioner under Section 50 of the Act for a
decision whether your request for information has been dealt with in
accordance with the requirements of Part I of the Act.  Refer to the ICO
Website at: [3]https://ico.org.uk/concerns/ for advice on how to report a
concern.  Or you can write to them at:
