The ICO refuse to enforce the law on behalf of the individual and refuse to investigate no matter how blatantly obvious the offence has been undertaken. The benefit of the doubt is always given to the data controller. Section 173 of the new act claims to institute a criminal offence "to alter, deface, block, erase, destroy or conceal information with the intention of preventing disclosure of all or part of the information that the person making the request would have been entitled to receive." This is lifted from section 77 of the existing FOIA 2000 which in the 18 years it has been law has NEVER been implemented by the ICO. Complaints sent to the ICO languish in a 3-4 month queue for attention and if at any point in that timeline the data controller does release any information the ICO deems it to be a matter of slow compliance rather than a criminal offence. The ICO does however have fixed penalties against data controllers for non payment of ICO fees and the data controller cannot be allowed to pay later than specified. It is our data and yet the organisation responsible for protecting our rights simply will not do so unless the breach makes the news in some spectacular fashion. My father died I believe as a result of Corporate Manslaughter and the Police who failed to take action to prevent his death have so far refused to comply with my subject access request and FOIA requests and the ICO simply refuse to investigate or take action. Please if you can find the time tell the ICO that their attitude is unacceptable and require a change.

Litter and waste is a severe problem in Cornwall. The majority of waste left out for bin collections gets attacked by animals or birds. Cornwall is a beautiful county, which is trying hard via many volunteer groups to keep litter out of our rivers and ultimately the sea. I belong to the Bude Rubbish Action Group, (BRAG), who meet regularly to clear our lovely town of litter. BRAG also educates our community how to deal correctly with waste and litter. The use of wheelie bins would have a massive impact on the problem of waste being blown around our streets. With huge amounts of waste and plastic finding its way into our oceans, I feel the Government and local councils should act immediately. Please provide us with wheelie bins.

As head of National Rail, he has presided over a period of extreme frustration and utter chaos among the majority of users of the national rail network. Not only has this lead to personal exasperation, but it also severly damages the credibility of the rail system.

Previous attempts by this and former governments to train chefs within specialized Training Centres of Excellence in the UK have consistently failed to produce the skilled chefs required to address the shortage. Closures of restaurants around the country are at an alarming rate of 3-4 per week. Heavy handed raids by UKBA and heavily imposed penalties add to the burden levied upon the restaurateurs eager to maintain and survive the current economic climate.

Large industrial units are spoiling the natural landscape of many towns and villages. Too often beautiful vistas are ruined by these ugly structures. If constructors were enforced to ensure the units made the minimum impact, then at least we are doing something to help this cause. In addition, if we can go as far as having living walls and roofs, then that would have an added benefit to the ecosystem. These simple changes shouldn't really have a huge impact on the construction cost.

I live in Hastings and I cannot access the beach or even get to the sea . Not only me but thousands of people cannot acccess beaches and the U.K. is not great at making Disabled people fell included but we ave a disability act .

Our children should have a safe route to access their secondary school. Blaby district council see the current Road as safe for our children to walk or cycle down during busy periods. What will it take for this to change? death of a child? This not only saves parents pockets, this also heightens our childrens health as they have a more active lifestyle of getting to and from school. Walking down a grass verge is not safe. A footpath needs to be implemented.

Having curtsey bays only, leaves disabled people further disadvantaged. Often not being able to park or safely load off load wheelchairs without putting people with disabilities at risk.

Treatment should be available to all especially if it means life or death.

The City is on it's knees! From homeless in the street to the appauling condition of the roads, meanwhile the Lord Provost is driving a £235,000 with a very prestigious private plate on; "G 0". This 6.6 litre vehicle achieves 6mpg! Not to mention the insurance costs!

I have grown up in Willesden Green and fully welcome the rising standard of our high street. But I think we can do more to improve the high street and make it a community destination - not a passage way. The Social was created and run by a Willesden Green born and bred, young female entrepreneur, Niamh Walshe Bride. Not only does she employee local people, but she has built the venue into a comfortable, safe place for the community to meet and grow. Niamh and the Social won a Brent Residents Recognition Award in 2017 and now Niamh now wants to start a new cultural and music venue at 17 Walm Lane. This will be a great way to help Willesden make the most of the night-time economy and the 24 hour tube. And there will there will be people out in Willesden when people are coming home, making the streets safer. So please help support the license of a new inclusive bar of high standard in our neighbourhood and support our own home grown young entrepreneurs.
