When is the deadline for eir representations to the public authority (internal review request)?
The catalogue records a 40 working-days period from The date on which the applicant believes that the public authority has failed to comply with the requirement. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 40 working-days
- Trigger
- The date on which the applicant believes that the public authority has failed to comply with the requirement
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- No extension power appears anywhere in reg 11. This is the key contrast with FOIA, where the 40 working day review window is only a Code of Practice expectation the authority may waive. Under the EIR the limit is in the regulations, expressed as "shall", so a late request does not engage the reg 11 duty at all - though an authority remains free to reconsider voluntarily, and the Commissioner's s.50 jurisdiction (applied by reg 18) is not itself time-limited.
- The trigger is subjective and unusual for a calculator: it runs from the date the applicant believes non-compliance occurred, not from the date of the authority's response. Where the complaint is a failure to respond at all, the trigger is normally the expiry of the reg 5(2) or reg 7(1) period. Treat the trigger date as a user input, not something derivable.
