COMMISSION
Dear
Mr Haswell,
Thank you for your email.
It seems likely that the information you require has been published by the IPCC and is therefore accessible to you without the need for a separate disclosure. I would draw your attention, in particular, to:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ippc-structure-and-salaries-march-2012 - for information about structure and salaries at the IPCC
http://www.ipcc.gov.uk/sites/default/files/IPCC_organogram.png - IPCC organogram
http://www.ipcc.gov.uk/page/organisational-structure - IPCC pay scales and grading structure
http://www.ipcc.gov.uk/about/corporate-reports-and-guidelines/annual-report/archive - IPCC annual report which includes information about expenditure in respect of staff and estates and the IPCC staff complement
Please note that under section 1(3) of the FOIA, a public authority is not required to respond to a request until it has received the further information it reasonably requires to identify and locate the information requested. Therefore, if having viewed the information available via the above web links you still wish to proceed with your request, I would be grateful if you would provide the following additional information which will be required before your request can be considered further:
Q1. A list of offices along with their sizes and number of offices
It appears to me that you may be seeking a list of the addresses of the offices from which the IPCC operates. Please confirm that this is correct. Please also confirm what you mean by "sizes"; do you mean, for example, the number of IPCC staff who are linked to each office?
Q3. Could you provide expenditures of each office locality in their annual totals
Please specify the particular expenditure you are interested in and the period for which the expenditure information is required. Do you require, for example, separate costs relating to rental and other overheads for each location?
Please contact us if you require any assistance.
Yours sincerely,
Philip Johnston

Dear Mr Haswell,
Thank
you for your email of 4th December 2013 regarding a
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 2000 request.
Please
be advised that the Office of the Complaints Commissioner, is not
subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and therefore has no
obligations in respect thereof. Furthermore, we are neither
an Ombudsman nor a public body.
However,
during the normal course of our work we do track certain statistics
regarding the nature and type of complainants who approach our
office. This information is published in our Annual Report
(available on our website). Please note that due to the
limited resources we have available at OCC we would not be able to
give you any further breakdowns of figures other than the ones
listed in our Annual Report.
Yours
sincerely,
Karen
Perry
Office
of the Complaints Commissioner
