- Decision(s) FOI 1: Upheld, FOI 10: Upheld
The complainant has requested specific information about street cleaning arrangements in his local area. Thanet District Council (TDC) disclosed some information, but failed to address two key points of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that TDC breached section 1 and section 10 of the FOIA by failing to confirm or deny whether it held the information in question within 20 working days. The Commissioner requires the public authority to issue a fresh response to the complainant under the FOIA in respect of the information described in paragraph 8 of this decision notice.
