  • Decision(s) EIR 5.2: Upheld

The complainant requested information from Southend-on-Sea City Council (“the Council”) regarding letters threatening fines for placing waste sacks on the highway. The Council has now disclosed the information requested, however there was a significant delay in providing all of the information held within the scope of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR by failing to disclose all of the information it held within scope of the request within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
