This commission holds that the ‘delay’, though undesirable, does not meet the threshold of ‘willful’ delay to invoke Section 20 (1) (e) and (f) of the Right of Access to Information Act, 2017.
Applications seeking further intervention of this commission for the implementation of its Order are disposed of in deference to Hon’ble Islamabad High Court where Order of the commission in the instant Appeal is sub-judice.
This commission maintains that, notwithstanding the fact that there has been undesirable ‘delay’ in implementing/challenging of the Order, any action against the Respondent, under powers vested in this commission would not be the interest of justice at this stage when Order of the commission is pending decision in Hon’ble Islamabad High Court.
