  • Decision(s) EIR 12.5.b: Not upheld

The complainant has requested information relating to his address between Stratford-on-Avon District Council (the council) and Dorsington Parish Council and its residents. The Council refused the request, withholding the information under the exceptions for the adverse effect to the course of justice and personal data – regulations 12(5)(b) and 13 of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has correctly applied regulation 12(5)(b) of the EIR to withhold the requested information. However she also finds the council in breach of regulation11(4) in providing an internal review outside the time specified. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2018/0082 dismissed.
