  • Decision(s) FOI 10: Upheld

A public authority will breach section 10 of FOIA if it fails to respond to a request within 20 working days. From the evidence presented to the Commissioner in this case, Cleveland Police failed to respond to the request within 20 working days, and therefore breached section 10 of FOIA.
The Commissioner does not require Cleveland Police to take any steps as a result of this decision.
