Arun District Council

  • Date 15 February 2022
  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) EIR 5.1: Not upheld, EIR 5.2: Upheld

The complainant has requested information held by Arun District Council (the council) relating to a particular planning application. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has provided the complainant with all the information it holds that is relevant to the first part of his request. However, as the council failed to provide this information within 20 working days, the Commissioner has found there to be a breach of regulation 5(2) of the EIR. In relation to part 2 of the request, the Commissioner is satisfied that, on the balance of probabilities, the council holds no further information falling within the scope of this part of the request that is not the complainant’s own personal data. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps as a result of this decision notice.
