Cherwell District Council
- Date 28 February 2024
- Sector Local government
- Decision(s) FOI 1: Not upheld, FOI 10: Upheld
The complainant requested information about the removal of an automatically generated response which the council previously used to send in response to emails it received from the Whatdotheyknow website. Cherwell District Council (“the council”) said that no information is held by it. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was correct to state that no information is held by it. The council has therefore decided that the council’s response complied with the requirements of section 1 of FOIA. However the Commissioner has also decided that the council did not comply with the requirements of section 10 of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
