1. Please provide the consultation documents and responses produced under Section 197(3)(b), (c) and (d) of the Localism Act 2011 produced in respect of the establishment of the Middlesbrough Mayoral Development Corporation.
2. Please identify the relevant date the documentation required for Section 197(5)(a) of the Localism Act 2011 was considered to be laid.
Dear Mr Rubecki
Please accept our apologies this has only just been brought to the attention of the FOI Department following your reminder and we had not had sight of your previous request. Consultation documents are published on our website and can be found at https://teesvalley-ca.gov.uk/. The consultation is currently open for responses and accordingly we do not hold the information you request in relation to consultation responses yet. It is our intention to publish a consultation log and the Authority's response once the consultation closes. This will also be published on our website.
Regards
Elaine

The consultation documents are not on the website.
A summary of what TVCA thought is on the website but the actual documents published have been removed. Please provide all the documents TVCA published as part of its Mayoral Development Corporation processes in 2022 and treat this as an additional FOIA request.

Dear TVCA Governance,
The FOI was submitted in May 2022. Why am I being asked to wait until 2023 for Tees Valley Combined Authority to discharge its statutory duty?
