The complainant has requested information about a particular module called “Expect Respect.” The above public authority’s (“the public authority’s”) final position was that the request could not be responded to without exceeding the appropriate limit. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request would exceed the appropriate limit and the public authority is therefore entitled to rely on section 12 of FOIA to refuse it. As the public authority failed to rely on section 12 to refuse the entire request within 20 working days, it breached section 17(5) of FOIA. The Commissioner also considers that the public authority failed to comply with its section 16 duty to provide advice and assistance. The Commissioner does not require further steps.FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld FOI 12: Complaint not upheld
