Winster Parish Council

The complainant requested information from Winster Parish Council (“the Council”) relating to the cutting and collection of arisings from Winster Common. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request should have been handled under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR) rather than the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. • Issue a fresh response to the request under the EIR. The Council must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.

EIR 5: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: ic-129620
