Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead

The complainant has requested information regarding a planning application. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead were correct to withhold information on the basis of regulations 12(5)(b) and 13(1). She also finds that on the balance of probabilities, the council does not hold any further information in scope of the request. However, the council responded outside of statutory timescales and therefore breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR. The Commissioner does not require any steps.
