Information Commissioner's Office

Cambridgeshire County Council

13 March 2007, Local government (County council)

The complainant submitted a request to the public authority for information relating to a long-running planning dispute. The public authority explained that the complainant had been given unrestricted access to the records it held about his complaint and he had been provided with copies of all eligible information. The complainant was not satisfied with the information that had been disclosed as it did not contain notes of the reasons for the conclusions reached by the public authority in respect of his complaint. Having considered the information available the Commissioner is satisfied that the outstanding information specifically requested by the complainant is not held by the public authority as recorded information. The Information Tribunal has ruled on this decision and has dismissed this appeal.

FOI 1: Not upheld
