I move amendment No. 53:

In page 30, between lines 36 and 37, to insert the following:“(5) Where a head refuses to grant a request, and—
(a) the information is already in the public domain,

(b) or publication of the record is required by law and is intended to be effected not later than 12 weeks after the receipt of the request by the head,

(c) or the FOI body intends to publish the record and such publication is intended to be effected not later than 6 weeks after the receipt of the request by the head, the head must provide the requester with details of when and where the information is, or will be available.”.
