Information Commissioner (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50443279 (09 August 2012)
Summary: The complainant has requested internal information on how the Information Commissioner-s Office (the -public authority-) handled any complaints it had received in May and July 2011 relating to any decision notices issued which had found that no information was held under section 1 of the FOIA. The public authority disclosed some information to the complainant, and stated that no further information was held. The complainant has complained that further information is held. After investigating the complaint the Commissioner-s decision is that no further relevant information is held. However, the Commissioner also finds that the public authority failed to provide advice and assistance under section 16 of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the public authority to now provide the complainant with advice and assistance to enable him to make a new request. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2012/0192 struck out.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 16 - Complaint Upheld
