Freedom of Information 13/04 Response



Dear Mr. McWeeney,

I refer to your recent your Freedom of Information request to Longford Sports and Leisure Ltd. seeking ALL data held about me personally.

At the outset I wish to advise that the FOI Act confers a right, subject to any relevant exemptions, of access to written records that exist rather than a right to have ALL questions in ALL of the aforementioned correspondence answered. The FOI legislation does not provide a mechanism for answering questions. In addition, the FOI Act does not impose an obligation on a public body to create a record where none exists.

I, also, wish to advise that it is not my function as a decision maker under FOI to respond to, comment on or engage with the substantive issues of concern to you in relation to Longford Sports and Leisure Centre.

My decision, therefore, to grant you access to your personal records is made only in accordance with the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act.
