Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport
The complainant requested from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (“DCMS”) any correspondence relating to the Dunelm House listing/Certificate of Immunity case from 2018 to the date of the request. The DCMS had failed to provide a substantive response by the date of this notice. The Commissioner’s decision is that the DCMS failed to respond to the request within 20 working days and has therefore breached section 10 of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the DCMS to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Issue a substantive response, in accordance with its obligations under the FOIA, to the request. The DCMS must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the FOIA and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
