Lewannick Parish Council
- Date 1 July 2022
- Sector Local government
- Decision(s) FOI 1: Partly upheld
The complainant requested copies of emails from Lewannick Parish Council in Cornwall (“the Parish Council”). After initially failing to address clearly whether the information was held, the Parish Council stated that it did not hold the emails. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Parish Council’s response did not comply with the requirements of section 1(1)(a) FOIA. However he is satisfied, on the balance of probabilities, that the information was not held by the Parish Council. The Commissioner does not require the Parish Council to take any steps but would refer it to the Other Matters section of this notice.
