Summary: The complainant requested information about accreditation. Whilst receipt of the request was acknowledged by Sussex Police, no substantive response to the request has been provided to the complainant. The Information Commissioner-™s decision is that the Home Office did not deal with the request for information in accordance with FOIA. It breached section 10(1) of FOIA by failing to provide a response to the request within the statutory timeframe of 20 working days. The Information Commissioner requires the public authority to confirm or deny whether the requested information is held in respect of the request, to comply with section 1(1)(a); and if information is held in respect of the request, either provide the information to comply with section 1(1)(b) (addressing the complainant-™s request for the response to be provided in electronic form), or withhold the information by issuing a valid refusal notice under section 17(1) of FOIA.
