Adult Social Care FOI enquiries, Bromley Borough Council

1 Attachment

Dear Requester

 

Further to your recent FOI enquiry, having completed my enquiries, please
see response(s) highlighted in blue below.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FOI RESPONSE:

 

N/A

 

The London Borough of Bromley transferred the full ownership and hence
responsibility for all of its stock to Broomleigh Housing Association
(formally Affinity Sutton and now Clarion) in 1992.

As a consequence of this London Borough of Bromley has no ownership or
control of social housing units and thereby no management, maintenance or
major works responsibilities.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

We trust this completes your FOI enquiry which has now been closed.

 

Thank you for your request.

 

Regards

 

 

 

 

FOI Co-ordinator

Education, Care and Health Services

London Borough of Bromley

Section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) places two duties

(1)(a) is to confirm or deny whether the information specified in a
request is held.  The second duty at Sec (1)(b) is to disclose information
which is permitted to the public domain and that has been confirmed as
being held.  Where exemptions are relied upon s17 of FOIA requires that we
provide the requester with a notice which: a) states fact b) specifies
exemption(s) in question and c) states (if that would not otherwise be
apparent) why exemption applies.

 

Section 12 (1) of the Freedom of the Freedom of Information Act states
that a public authority is not obliged to:…. “comply with a request for
information if the authority estimates that the cost of complying with the
request would exceed the appropriate time limit of 18 hours of an officers
time to manually review records, retrieve and collate the data which we
are not obliged to do under the act if to do so would exceed the 18 hour
time limit.

 

If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your FOI request, you have
the right to ask for us to conduct an internal review.

 

If you are not content with the outcome of our internal review, you have
the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a
decision.  The information Commissioner can be contact on 0303 123 1113 or
01625 545 745.
