Townley Grammar School

The complainant has submitted 78 requests for information to Townley Grammar School (‘the School’). The School is relying on section 12(1) of the FOIA to refuse to comply with the requests as it considers the cost of doing so would exceed the appropriate limit. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: Under section 12(4) of the FOIA the School is entitled to aggregate the cost of complying with the requests and to rely on section 12(1) of the FOIA to refuse to comply with them. The School offered the complainant appropriate advice and assistance as to how the requests might be refined and, as such, there was no breach of section 16(1) of the FOIA in the School’s handling of the requests. The Commissioner does not require the School to take any remedial steps.
