Negash has been with our office for a shorter period of time than me—an office I have been at, for better or for worse, since it was created in 2008—and I would characterize it as not being normal for us to submit an information request for data that departments and agencies are supposed to be tracking and have available, and for us, to give them five weeks to respond with pre-existing data that, for the most part, is non-confidential in nature, and not normal for many departments and agencies, some of which have several thousand employees, not to be able to respond in a timely way.
On April 16th, 2018. See this statement in context.
