C. Singhi in which, through a separate sheet, he<br \/>\nhas categorized his request and response received as follows:\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>         Information            Information given under       Reason &amp; Ground of<br \/>\n         sought vide my         Right to Information          appeal under Section<br \/>\n         letter      dated      Act,    2005     Central      19(1) of Right to<br \/>\n         18.2.2008              Public       Information      Information Act, 2005.<\/p>\n<p>                                Officer dated 20.3.2008<\/p>\n<p>     Initially the appeal was scheduled for 16.5.08 at 11.00 a.m. However, since<br \/>\nthe party appeared before Shri M Haleem Khan, who by then was First Appellate<br \/>\nAuthority and who had earlier been CPIO who had dealt with the case, he<br \/>\ndecided as follows:\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>      &#8220;Shri S. P. Goyal was informed about the technical difficulties in<br \/>\n      hearing the appeal by the Secretary as the First Appellate<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                         2<\/span><br \/>\n        Authority.

The following are present:\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>       Appellant at NIC Studio Mumbai<br \/>\n             Shri S. P. Goyal<br \/>\n       Respondents at CIC Studio, New Delhi<br \/>\n             Shri D. C. Singh, Under Secretary<br \/>\n             Shri M. C. Sharma, Under Secretary<\/p>\n<p>     Since we found that the ground for appeal u\/s 19(1) described by appellant<br \/>\nShri Goyal in his first appeal were largely an expression of dissatisfaction at<br \/>\nsystems existing in this Commission rather than request for any further<br \/>\ninformation not received, and request for opinions on decisions of this<br \/>\nCommission in its order No. CIC\/AT\/C\/2007\/00282 dated 15.10.07, which was<br \/>\noutside the competence of this Commission to review, we went through the<br \/>\nquestions point by point in the hearing. In this matter we find that the information<br \/>\nsought at Point No. 7 (iv) was as follows, followed by response received and the<br \/>\ngrounds for appeal submitted by appellant:\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        Please inform       The matter was decided vide       Order       supplied<br \/>\n        whether      this   Commission&#8217;s order dated          under this S.

No. CIC\/AT\/A\/2007\/00344 dated<br \/>\n      13.6.2007 the portion of order as under:-\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      It is directed that a separate notice may issue to the CPIO to show<br \/>\n      cause as to why penalty under Section 20 (1) not be imposed on<br \/>\n      him for providing the appellant incorrect and misleading<br \/>\n      information. The notice is returnable in two weeks time.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      Please provided the copy of notice issued to the Central Public<br \/>\n      Information Officer to Show Cause why penalty under section 20(1)<br \/>\n      not be imposed as well as reply received by Central Information<br \/>\n      Commision from Central Public Information Officer against above<br \/>\n      order.&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The CPIO&#8217;s response was as follows:\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>      &#8220;A copy of show cause notice issued to the CPIO u\/s 20(1) and the<br \/>\n      reply received from the CPIO are enclosed (Total pages 3).&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>     Appellant Shri Goyal submitted that he had not in fact received the three<br \/>\npages, stated to have been attached with the response from CPIO.\n<\/p>\n<p>                           DECISION NOTICE<\/p>\n<p>     Having heard the arguments and examined the record, we find that the only<br \/>\noutstanding issue is copies of three documents stated to have been sent as an<br \/>\nattachment to his letter by the then CPIO Shri Mohammad Haleem Khan but not<br \/>\nreceived by appellant Shri S. P. Goyal. Present CPIO Shri D.C. Singh Under<br \/>\nSecretary and Assistant Registrar is directed to supply this information on FAX \/<br \/>\nSpeed Post on the date of hearing. It has subsequently been confirmed that this<br \/>\nhas been sent by Speed Post.\n<\/p>\n<p>     Insofar as seeking the opinion of the CPIO on a decision is concerned, it is<br \/>\nclear that information sought must be information held in material form. The<br \/>\nopinion of the Commission stands expressed in the very decision that appellant<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                        4<\/span><br \/>\n has found unsatisfactory. The stand of the CPIO is therefore entirely in accord<br \/>\nwith the law.\n<\/p>\n<p>      In matters in which appellant Shri S.P. Goyal has expressed his<br \/>\ndissatisfaction   with   the   decision   of   this   Commission    in   File   No.<br \/>\nCIC\/AT\/C\/2007\/00282 dated 15.10.07, appellant was informed that u\/s 19 sub-<br \/>\nsection (7) the decision of this Commission is binding, this allowing for no appeal.<br \/>\nRecourse in this matter can, therefore, be a Writ Petition under Article 260 of the<br \/>\nConstitution of India.\n<\/p>\n<p>The appeal is thus allowed in part.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Announced in the hearing.
