Good Morning
Thank you for your recent request made under the Freedom of Information Act, which has been received by Wirral Borough Council.
In accordance with Section 8 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, a requester should provide their name for a request to be processed (please see the guidance from the Information Commissioner’s Office below):
What constitutes a real name?
We consider that a relatively informal approach is also appropriate in this context. Therefore, title and/or first name with surname satisfies the requirement for provision of a real name, as does the use by a female applicant of her maiden name. The prime consideration is whether enough of a person’s full name has been provided to give a reasonable indication of that person’s identity.
Example:
Mr Arthur Thomas Roberts could satisfy Section 8(1)(b) of the FOIA by stating his name in a request for information as “Arthur Roberts”, “A. T. Roberts”, or “Mr Roberts”, but not by stating his name as “Arthur” or “A.T.R.”
In most cases, it will be reasonable for a real name to comprise a name by which the person making the request is widely known and/or is regularly used by that person and which is not an obvious pseudonym or fictitious name.
Once Wirral Borough Council are in receipt of your full name, your request will be passed to the relevant department and we will aim to issue a substantive response within 20 working days.
Kind regards,
Tracy O'Hare
