Dear Powys Regional Partnership Board,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of Powys Regional Partnership Board's handling of my FOI request 'Digital Healthcare Initiatives'. I should have received a response by 17th October 2024. It is my understanding that you are legally obligated to respond within 20 working days, and it appears this timeline has not been followed.

I kindly ask that this matter be reviewed internally. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I may need to escalate this issue to the Information Commissioner.
Thank you for your prompt attention 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/d...

Dear Beth, 
Thank you for your email and apologies for the delay in responding. The
Regional Partnership Board has reviewed your request.  Please see response
below-
 
The Regional Partnership board is a separate entity for the purposes
of FOI. The FOI Act lists, at Schedule 1 ([1]Freedom of Information Act
2000 (legislation.gov.uk)) , all Authorities that are bound by The Act.
Powys County Council must respond to FOI’s because the Act, at Schedule 1
Paragraph 7 defines:
 
7          A local authority within the meaning of the Local Government
Act 1972,  namely—
(a )in England, a county council, a London borough council, a district
council or a parish council,
(b )in Wales, a county council, a county borough council or a community
council.
 
As the Regional Partnership Board is a separate entity from the Local
Authority, there is not a requirement for a response to FOI requests.
 

Many thanks,

 

Amy Haddon

(On behalf of the Regional Partnership Board)
