Maker with Rame Parish Council

  • Date 17 November 2021
  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) EIR 5.2: Upheld, FOI 10: Upheld

The complainant requested information from Maker with Rame Parish Council, Cornwall (“the Council”) about decision-making in relation to a planning application, and in relation to its dealings with him as an individual. The Commissioner’s decision is that some parts of the request fell to be considered under the EIR, and some parts under the FOIA. The Council failed to respond to any part of the request within 20 working days, and was therefore in breach of regulation 5(2) of the EIR and section 10 of the FOIA. As a response has now been issued, the Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
