17 October (Part 2) - Update on Freedom of Information requests
It isn’t just the unfinished
Knee Hill resurfacing that has received
commendably quick attention from Bexley council, the Information Commissioner’s
demand that they respond to the FOI about the number of
councillors
who have been investigated by the police got an almost instant response too. They
refused to give the information - again; so once more a report is winging its way
to Wilmslow - the ICO’s address.
An enquiry has gone to the same place. Is it permissible to send a transcript of
an original document which cannot be proven to bear any similarity to the
original. This one relates to Bexley council’s
failure to provide a facsimile
of Will Tuckley’s business appointments diary.
And to keep the pot boiling, someone has asked who it was who requested police
presence at last night’s meeting, and why.
