Huntingdonshire District Council
- Date 5 November 2009
- Sector Local government
- Decision(s) EIR 12.4.a: Not upheld, EIR 14: Upheld
The complainant requested copies of the public authority’s authorisation for the construction of a vehicular crossing for use by properties on High Street in Ramsey. The public authority replied that the information was not held. The Commissioner investigated and found that the requests should have been processed under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (“EIR”). However he has determined that the exception in Regulation 12(4)(a) of the EIR applied. As the public authority did not issue a refusal notice compliant with the requirements of Regulation 14(1) the public authority failed to comply with that Regulation. The Commissioner has not ordered the public authority to take any steps. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2009/0101 part allowed.
