Summary: The complainant requested, under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the -˜Act-™), information from the MHRA about its procedures in set circumstances. The MHRA provided some information and explained that it did not hold further information. The complainant asked for an internal review and the MHRA upheld its position. The case was referred to the Commissioner. The Commissioner found one relevant policy and ensured that this was disclosed to the complainant, but finds on the balance of probabilities that the MHRA does not hold any further relevant recorded information in this case. The Commissioner finds a breach of section 10(1) because the single policy was not provided in twenty working days. However, he does not require any remedial steps to be taken as it has now been provided. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2011/0198 struck out.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld
