The interpretation and operation of the Freedom of Information Act 2014, and responses to individual requests, are the responsibility of each independent Government body. It is an operational matter for Tusla to deal directly with the persons concerned. I have asked Tusla to respond directly to the Deputy in relation to this matter.

If the individual is not satisfied with the decision of their Freedom of Information request, they may ask Tusla directly for an “internal review” of the decision. Should the individual still be dissatisfied with the result of the request, they can make contact with the Office of the Information Commissioner, details below, with regard to a further appeal.
