Medway Council

The complainant has requested information about schools for the academic year 2015-2016. Medway Council has acknowledged that it has not provided a substantive response to part 4) of the request under the terms of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has failed to provide a substantive response to part 4) of the request, and has therefore breached section 10(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Issue a substantive response, under the FOIA, to part 4) of the request (which the Council has given the reference ‘MFOI001173’).
