- Decision(s) FOI 14: Upheld
The complainant requested information relating to housing applications. Hertsmere Borough Council (the “council”) refused the request, citing section 14 (vexatious and repeated requests) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has not correctly applied section 14 of the FOIA to the request. The Commissioner requires the council to issue a fresh response to the request which does not rely on section 14 of the FOIA.
