County of Herefordshire District Council

The complainant submitted a request for information held by Herefordshire Council (the council) about the legal status of a particular area of land. The council aggregated the request with a number of other requests submitted by the complainant and issued a refusal notice, citing section 12 (cost limits) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). During the Commissioner’s investigation, the council revised its position, and provided the complainant with information in response to all seven parts of their request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council should have initially considered the request under the EIR. However, he considers that the council has, on the balance of probabilities, now provided the complainant with the information that is held that falls within the scope of the request.

EIR 5(1): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 278629
