Summary: The complainant requested information relating to the television programme Doctor Who. The Council refused the request on the basis that the estimated cost of compliance would exceed the appropriate limit as set out at section 12(1) of the Act and the Fees Regulations. In its internal review the Council stated that it was also relying on section 14(1) of the Act. The Commissioner has investigated and found that sections 12(1) and 14(1) of the Act are not engaged. The Commissioner requires that the Council now confirm or deny to the complainant if the information requested is held and, if held, disclose the information or issue a valid refusal notice under section 17(1) of the Act. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2011/0215 dismissed.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 12 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 14 - Complaint Upheld
