Barnet London Borough Council

The complainant has requested information in relation to a long-standing issue he has with the public authority. The public authority advises that it did not receive the request, but as the complainant chased a response shortly after making his request, the public authority was able to ask for a copy of the request still within the 20 working day limit for compliance. A copy was not submitted. The Information Commissioner concludes that there was no breach of the FOIA and he does not require any steps to be taken.
