Surrey Heath Borough Council

The complainant requested from Surrey Heath Borough Council (‘SHBC’) information relating to a planning application. SHBC initially cited regulation 12(5)(f) (interests of the person who provided the information) to withhold the requested information. It subsequently revised its position, saying that it did not hold the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, SHBC does not hold the requested information. The Commissioner requires no steps as a result of this decision.
