Thank you for your request for information, received on 27 February 2024, which is being handled under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004. The reference number for the request is 2024-226.

You requested information on disposal of dog waste in Haringey parks. NLWA disposes of waste collected by the seven north London boroughs, including Haringey, but is not involved in parks management. We therefore do not hold any information on how dog waste is collected. Your enquiry would be better referred to Haringey Council via their website.

If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you may ask for an internal review, which should be submitted within two months of when you received our response to either informationrequests@nlwa.gov.uk or enquiry form quoting the above reference.

If you are not content with the outcome of the review, you may complain to the Information Commissioner, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF, or via their online portal. The Information Commissioner will not usually accept complaints before a review has been completed.
