  • Decision(s) FOI 10: Upheld

The complainant has requested a copy of the Clerk’s handwritten notes from a specified meeting. Leyburn Town Council (the council) initially failed to deal with the request in accordance with the FOIA. Following the Commissioner’s involvement, the council complied with the request. The council therefore breached section 10 of the FOIA in not complying with the request within 20 working days. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council failed to comply with section 10 of the FOIA. As the council has now complied with the request, the Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.
