  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) FOI 10(1): Upheld, FOI 12(1): Not upheld, FOI 16: Not upheld

The complainant has requested information about penalty charge notices for Mersey Tolls. The Commissioner’s decision is that Halton Borough Council is entitled to rely upon the exemption at section 12(1) and has, during the course of the investigation, complied with its duty under section 16 of the FOIA. However, it breached section 10(1) in responding to the complainant outside of the statutory time periods. The Commissioner does not require any steps.
