FoIA: Local Councils and the Daily Mail, LB Newham

I have previously mentioned my FoIA request regarding the Internet usage of various local councils within Greater London.

Legally the responses were due by last Friday (23rd October 2009) and four of the five councils - LB Merton, LB Wandsworth, LB Tower Hamlets and the City of London - have replied within the time period, providing varying levels of information.

However, that does leave out one council: LB Newham.

My request was sent on 26th September 2009 and they initially acknowledged it stating that they would respond by 27th October, but I am still to hear from them.

I have sent a friendly chasing email and hopefully they will respond. If not, I have no real option but to take it further.
