  • Decision(s) FOI 14: Upheld

The complainant made a request for information relating to green claims. Highways England refused to comply with the request under section 14(1) FOIA as it considered the request to be vexatious. The Commissioner considers that Highways England incorrectly applied section 14(1) FOIA. The Commissioner requires the public authority to issue a fresh response to the complainant not relying upon section 14(1) FOIA.
