West Dorset District Council
- Date 22 May 2019
- Sector Local government
- Decision(s) FOI 10: Upheld
The complainant requested information from West Dorset District Council (“the Council”), which has now been incorporated into the newly-restructured Dorset Council, about the procedures followed by the Council’s Housing Team when dealing with homeless people. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council failed to respond to the request within 20 working days and therefore breached section 10 of the FOIA – time for compliance. As a response has now been provided, the Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps.
