I have received correspondence about the matter in question. In response, the Department stated that responsibility for managing their files and administering their functions generally rests with local authorities, which are independent statutory bodies with democratically elected councils and their own management systems. The reply also noted that complaints about the administrative practices of local authorities may appropriately be raised with the local government auditor or the Ombudsman.
