Highways England

The complainant has requested information from Highways England about a claim. Highways England relied on section 17(6) of the FOIA not to provide the complainant with a section 14(1) refusal notice. This is because it had previously refused requests for information on similar matters under section 14(1) as it considered those requests to be vexatious. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: The request is vexatious and, under section 17(6) of the FOIA it would be unreasonable to expect HE to issue a further refusal notice in relation to this request. The Commissioner does not require Highways England to take any further action. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2021/0259 under appeal.

FOI 17: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: IC-81546
