Leeds City Council

  • Date 22 December 2022
  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) FOI 10: Upheld, FOI 17: Upheld, FOI 31: Not upheld

The complainant requested various information about CCTV cameras installed within the Leeds area. Leeds City Council (the Council) provided some information but withheld the specific location of cameras under section 31(1)(a) (Law enforcement). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council correctly applied section 31(1)(a) to the request. However, in failing to respond to the request within 20 working days, the Commissioner finds that the Council breached sections 10 and 17 of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
