12 September 2005, Police and criminal justice
The complainant requested information relating to police vehicle safety checks from GMP in a letter dated 6 January 2005. GMP responded to 2 of 7 questions but when asked by the complainant for a response to the remaining questions, they refused. The ICO wrote to GMP insisting that they respond to the request. GMP did so on the 10 May 2005 and provided all of the requested information; however a breach of the Act has occurred because the response was received outside the 20 working day limit.
