Dear Mr Jones
Request for Information
**Coronavirus update** During the pandemic, please be aware that our
response times for information requests might be longer as the
organisation responds to the changed situation. Please bear with us at
this critical time as we work to meet your request.
Thank you for your request received on 1 December 2021. This
correspondence is our acknowledgement of your request. Please note the
reference number and refer to it in any future correspondence.
Depending on the type of request, it will be handled under the Freedom of
Information Act 2000, the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, or
the Data Protection Act (DPA).
For Freedom of Information Act 2000 or Environmental Information
Regulations 2004, the statutory deadline is 20 working days. However, in
some cases, for Environmental Information Regulations 2004 the deadline
may be extended to 40 working days. If this is the case, we will write to
explain that to you.
For the DPA, the statutory deadline is one month. However, in some cases
the deadline can be extended. If this is the case, we will write to you
and explain why we are extending the deadline.
If you combine a FOI/EIR request with a DPA request, we will log each as a
separate request.
If we hold this information, we will let you know and in most cases supply
it to you. You may request a particular format for receiving the
information and we will do our best to accommodate. In most cases, we will
respond by email or letter in 12 point Arial font. If you have a
particular need to receive the material in a different format, please let
us know.
If you make a DPA request electronically, we will respond electronically.
In some cases, the information you request will be exempt from disclosure.
What this means is that the legislation allows the Council to refuse to
provide the information. Where this occurs, we will tell you the reasons
why and we will explain how to appeal that decision.
If your request refers to a third party, then they may be consulted about
disclosing the information before we decide whether to release the
information to you. For example, if someone asks about a contract with a
supplier, we will contact the supplier to consider their views about
disclosing the information.
In some cases, we may require a payment to cover photocopying, postage, or
other production costs on requests that require large amounts of
photocopying. However, we will discuss this with you and look for ways to
provide the information in electronic formats if possible. If a payment
is required, it must be provided before we can send you the information.
If a payment is required, the 20 working day time limit for responses is
suspended until the payment is received.
We may also need to contact you to clarify your request. We are obliged to
do this under s.16 of the FOIA, which refers to the duty to provide advice
and assistance to applicants. When we ask to clarify your request, the 20
working day countdown stops until we hear back from you. If you have not
contacted us about the request within 30 calendar days, we will close it.
Please note that your request and our response may be put on the Council’s
disclosure log. What this means is that we keep a log of all the requests
and responses if anyone wants to look at them. When we put the request and
response on the log, we remove the applicant’s name and any personal
references. In any case, where personal information remains, it will be
done in accordance with the Data Protection Act (DPA).
Please note that DPA request do not have a disclosure log. They are never
placed in the public domain.

Dear Durham County Council,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Durham County Council's handling of my FOI request 'Homeless placements'.
The information supplied differs from information freely available on DCC website, namely card payment spreadsheets. As example, July, August, September values differ substantially using the card payment records compared to those provided by this FOI request.
I look forward to your internal review and confirmation of values.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/h...

Dear Mr Jones
On looking into your internal review request detailed below, the council
have checked the information provided. But with regards to the payments

In order to take this matter further please can you clarify your request
and provide an example of where and what you are viewing and the specific
information so we can cross reference and carry out the review.
Please provide this clarification within the next 7 days, your request is
on hold until you respond. If nothing is received from you within this

paragraph above.

Dear Mr Jones
Information requested by: Mr Jones
Review carried out by: Case Officers IMT and relevant service area.
1. Summary of Process
1. Request received:1/12/21
2. Response sent:11/1/22
3. Review requested:22/1/22
2. Review of Response
In your email dated 22 January 2022, you raised the following issues:
Dear Durham County Council,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information
reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Durham County Council's
handling of my FOI request 'Homeless placements'.
The information supplied differs from information freely available on
DCC website, namely card payment spreadsheets. As example, July,
August, September values differ substantially using the card payment
records compared to those provided by this FOI request.
I look forward to your internal review and confirmation of values.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available
on the Internet at this address:
[1]https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/h...
1. Statutory Considerations
1. Did the Council answer your request within the required timescale
of 20 working days?
2. Did the Council confirm or deny it held the information?
3. Did the Council provide the information requested?
4. If the Council did not provide the information was the refusal
clear?
5. If the Council applied an exemption was it correct and was it
explained
6. Did the Council offer appropriate advice?
7. Did the Council advise you of the internal review process and
your right of appeal to the ICO?
2. Outcomes
1. No, the Council answered your request within the statutory time
limit and offer our apologies for the delay in responding.
2. The Council did not confirm or deny it held the information
requested, as it was unsure what was required.
3. Yes the Council did provide the information requested and did not
seek further clarification of what was required.
4. N/A; no refusal was made.
5. N/A; no exemption was necessary.
6. Yes the Council seek to obtain further clarification of the
uncertainty of what was requested.
7. Yes the Council did advise the requester of the internal review
process and their right of appeal to the ICO.
Response to the Issues you raised
The council can advise that the information you provided in your request
for an internal review is only partly comparable to the response initially
provided. This shows all card payments made on a given date to the
supplier. It does not take into account any later adjustments between cost
centres and account codes, and does not reflect the dates the payments
were verified and processed internally (usually a month later, via our
financing system). It also does not reflect the date (usually a further
month) the date that the monies were placed in our accounts for
reconciliation purposes. The data the council has provided in our initial
response is correct by month money is shown in our finance system as
final. Please note, this is only card transactions he has sent. Invoice
data (also available on the DCC website) does not include temporary
accommodation payments or credits as it may contain personal information.
This means credit notes/refunds may be received by invoice and this would
be reflected in the data provided in our response given but would not show
in these card transactions.
Decision
The final decision of this review is that the council advise the above
further information in response to your complaint.
If you are not content with the outcome of this Internal Review you have
the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner's Office for a
further decision. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:
