  • Decision(s) FOI 1: Not upheld, FOI 10: Upheld

The complainant submitted an information request containing 6 questions related to traffic signs shown on the M1 motorway on a specific date and time period. Highways England (HE) provided some of the requested information and stated that it did not hold any further information.

The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, HE does not hold information further to that already provided.

However, she found that HE breached section 10(1) of the FOIA due to the time it took to respond to the request.

The Commissioner does not require HE to take any steps.
