The complainant has requested information from the Department for Work and Pensions (“the DWP”) about certain organisations’ participation in the Mandatory Work Activity Scheme. The Commissioner’s decision is that the DWP has provided the complainant with the information which he had requested. However, the DWP has breached section 10 of the FOIA since it did not issue its response within the statutory time for compliance. The Commissioner does not require the DWP to take any steps.
