7 July 2015, Central government
The complainant requested information relating to the provision of Disability Living Allowance (DLA) to deaf children. The DWP refused the request under section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act) as compliance with the request would exceed the appropriate limit. The Commissioner’s decision is that the DWP is entitled to refuse the request under section 12 of the Act. However, it has breached section 16 by failing to provide advice and assistance to the complainant about his request. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.
FOI 12: Not upheld FOI 16: Upheld
