PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Department for Education: Freedom of Information (9 May 2016)

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many responses to freedom of information requests have been reviewed by her Department's special advisers before being issued to the individual or organisation requesting information in each of the last five years for which figures are available.

Asked by:
Bridget Phillipson (Labour)

Special advisers do not routinely review responses to all FOI requests, nor have figures in relation to this been routinely collected. The information requested could only be provided at disproportionate cost.
