Depending on the type of request, it will be handled under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) or the Environmental Information Regulations (EIR). Both of these have a statutory 20 working day deadline for a response however, in some cases, the deadline may be extended to 40 working days. The deadline for an FOIA request can be extended if an extended public interest test is required before deciding to respond. The deadline for an EIR request can be extended if the information requested is too voluminous or complex to respond to fully within the 20 day timescale. If this is the case, we will write to explain that to you.
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.
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 requests 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.
NB: There may be a charge for environmental information. Please contact us if you have any questions about that charge.
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 Act, 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 days, we will close it.

I have received an apology for the delay, see https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/3...
The one email apologised for the delay to two FOI requests (the other related to the 2016 consultation) and this system recorded the reply against the other request.
