The Freedom of Information Act 2000 states that the respondent has 20 working days to reply to the query and if it takes longer than 20 working days to collate the information, the responder can ask the requester to grant discretionary extension of time up to a maximum of further 20 working days. Please let me know if it is likely that you will be unable to provide the relevant information to me by the above deadline.
The act also allows the respondent to reject or charge the requester for the request if it would take 18 or more working hours to deal with the request e.g. locating, retrieving, extracting the information. which would cost the respondent at least £450 charging at £25 per hour.. If you could please let me know whether or not it may take 18 or more working hours to provide the information, so that I am able to send a fee note to the requester, as appropriate.
