London Borough of Waltham Forest

The complainant requested late payment information from London Borough of Waltham Forest (“the council”). A public authority will breach section 10 of FOIA if it fails to respond to a request within 20 working days. Based on evidence available to the Commissioner, by the date of this notice the council has not issued a substantive response to this request. Therefore the Commissioner finds a breach of section 10. The council must provide a substantive response to the request in accordance with its obligations under FOIA. The council must take this step within 30 calendar days of the date of this decision notice.
