Dear Mr Jay,

 

Freedom of Information Request

 

I am writing regarding your Freedom of Information Request relating to
alleged FCHO Fly tipping policy ref 435916 reported to FCHO CEO Donna
Cezair.

 

FCHO transferred from the ownership of Oldham Council in February 2011.
FCHO is a Co-operative and Community Benefit Society and is registered
with the Financial Conduct Authority as a Mutual Society. FCHO is a ‘not
for profit’ housing association and is an exempt Charity regulated and
accountable to the Regulator of Social Housing.

 

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 provides public access to information
held by public authorities as defined in section 3 of the Act.
Unfortunately, however, First Choice Homes Oldham is not classed as a
public body under the said Act and it is therefore not legally obliged to
provide any information to you.

 

Notwithstanding the above, FCHO have investigated this matter and can
confirm that no property on Sunfield Road, Oldham OL1 3BS, in particular
number 73, has been refurbished recently either by FCHO employees or any
contractor acting on behalf of FCHO.  

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

Mohammed Yasser

Head of Legal Services

black bin that belongs to 79 sunfield Rd OL1 3BS the bin is not for
commercial waste and the bin is so heavy and very difficult to move.

Please can First Choice Homes Oldham remove the building rubbish from the

rubbish correctly.

I would like FCHO to provide a copy of the policy for removing building

Dear First Choice Homes Oldham,

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

I am writing to request an internal review of First Choice Homes Oldham's handling of my FOI request 'FCHO Fly tipping policy ref 435916 reported to FCHO CEO Donna Cezair'.

I made FCHO aware of fly tipping why did FCHO ignore the fly tipping complaint until The Oldham Times and Oldham Council become involved?

The tactical delay used by FCHO not to investigates the complaint was to give Oldham council time to collect the rubbish from the black bin.

Only after The Oldham Times and Oldham Council become involved and the bin was emptied FCHO decided it was the best time to investigate the complaint as FCHO will not find any fly tipping.

Also the evidence of fly tipping is on social media for you to see.

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