Summary: The complainant requested evidence supporting a statement contained in the Marine Management Organisation-s (-MMO-) annual report for 2011/12 that a performance measure, that it would process and cross check 100 per cent of fishing activity data within agreed deadlines, had been met. The MMO informed the complainant that the internally agreed deadline was that 95% of data would be input within 5 working days of receipt and provided evidence that this had been achieved. The complainant complained to the Commissioner that the MMO-s response should have been that it did not hold any information falling within the scope of her request. The Commissioner-s decision is that the MMO has breached sections 1(1)(a) and 10(1) by not informing the complainant that it did not hold any information falling within the scope of the final part of her request. The Commissioner requires the public authority to respond to the complainant confirming that it does not hold any information falling within the scope of the final part of her request.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld
