- Decision(s) EIR 5.1: Not upheld
The complainant requested information from North Norfolk District Council (“the council”) in connection with a planning application. He asked to know which restrictive covenants were considered to be unenforceable by the council and how the council justified its ownership of a particular area of land. The council said that the information was not held. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request should have been considered under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (“the EIR”). However, she accepts that the information was not held. There are no steps to take.
