Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council

The complainant has requested information about the Covid-19 pandemic funding that Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council (‘the Council’) received from central government. The Council cited section 14 (Vexatious request) of FOIA to refuse to comply with the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was not entitled to rely on section 14 of FOIA to refuse the request. The Commissioner requires the Council to issue a fresh response to the request, which does not rely on section 14 of FOIA.

FOI 14: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 125224
