Summary wording for website: The complainant has requested information regarding the addresses of properties owned by the public authority that had become vacant and for how long. The Commissioner’s decision is that London Borough of Hounslow (“the Council”) has provided relevant information within the scope of the request and has correctly applied section 40(2).

The Commissioner requires no further action from the Council.
