The complainant requested information about delegated powers for civilian investigators. The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) did not provide a response to the request within 20 working days. The Commissioner’s decision is that PSNI has not responded to the complainant’s request within the statutory time frame of 20 working days and so it breached section 10(1) of the FOIA. However, PSNI subsequently provided a response to the complainant and therefore the Commissioner does not require it to take any further steps to comply with the legislation.
