  • Decision(s) FOI 14: Not upheld

The complainant requested information about a particular incident that occurred in Area 9 on the M40, which Highways England’s contractor, Kier Highways, attended. The Commissioner’s decision is that Highways England has correctly applied section 14(1) of the FOIA. However, Highways England breached section 10(1) by providing its refusal notice outside of the time for compliance. The Commissioner does not require Highways England to take any steps.
