Lewisham London Borough Council

  • Date 23 March 2016
  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) EIR 12 3: Not upheld, EIR 13: Not upheld, EIR 5.2: Upheld, EIR 5.3: Not upheld

The complainant has requested information from the London Borough of Lewisham (“the Council”) relating to Planning and Building applications in respect of a specific property. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied regulation 5(3), and regulation 12(3) and 13 of the EIR to some of the requested information. However, the Council did not respond to the request within the statutory timeframe. It has therefore breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take no steps.
