Where this regulation applies, subsections (1) and (2) of section 10 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 have effect as if any reference to the twentieth working day following the date of receipt were a reference to either—

a

the twentieth working day following the date of receipt, disregarding any working day which, in relation to the Academy referred to in paragraph (1), is not a school day, or

b

the sixtieth working day following the date of receipt,

whichever occurs first.

“School day”, for the purposes of this regulation, has the same meaning as in section 579(1) of the Education Act 19962.
