- Decision(s) EIR 5.1: Not upheld
The complainant has requested information held by the London Borough of Hillingdon (the council) which relates to its ‘Domestic Vehicle Footway Crossover Policy’. The council refused the request, citing section 14(1) - vexatious request, of the FOIA. Following the intervention of the Commissioner, the council revised its position, and provided the complainant with some information. It is the Commissioner’s decision that the request would fall within the scope of the EIR, and not the FOIA. Whilst the information provided by the council was not what the complainant required, the Commissioner is satisfied that, on the balance of probabilities, the council does not hold any other information that is relevant to the request. Therefore, the Commissioner does not require the council to take any further action as a result of this decision notice.
