Greater London Authority

The complainant requested information relating to artists who exhibited works of art on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square. The Greater London Authority (GLA) refused the request using section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act), as complying with the request would exceed the appropriate cost limit. The Commissioner’s decision is that GLA has correctly applied section 12, but has breached section 16 of the Act by not providing advice and assistance to the requester. No further action is required.
