Kent County Council

The complainant has requested information from Kent County Council (“the Council”) in relation to logos being removed from a festival poster. The Council refused to provide the information, relying on section 12(1) of FOIA – cost of compliance exceeds the appropriate limit. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to rely on section 12(1) of FOIA to refuse the request. The Commissioner is satisfied that the Council provided sufficient advice and assistance to the complainant in both the original response and again once it had reconsidered it response in the internal review and as such, it has not breached section 16 of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps as a result of this decision notice.
