- Decision(s) EIR 5.2: Upheld
The complainant has requested information with regards to a named lane. The council initial refused to provide the information under section 43(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the FOIA). During the Commissioner’s investigation the council reconsidered the request under the EIR and subsequently provided the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR as it provided the information outside the required 20 working days. As the information has now been provided to the complainant, the Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
