  • Date 21 August 2018
  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) EIR 11.4: Upheld, EIR 5.2: Upheld

The complainant has requested information related to a particular planning application. The Commissioner’s decision is that London Borough of Croydon has failed to carry out a reconsideration (internal review) of the way it handled a request for information within 40 working days and also failed to respond to the request within 20 working days. It has therefore breached Regulations 11(4) and 5(2) of the EIR. The Commissioner requires the London Borough to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: complete its review of the complainant’s request and inform him of the outcome of that review.
