Gwynedd Council (Decision Notice) [2010] UKICO FER0278264 (24 June 2010)
Summary: The complainant made a request to Gwynedd Council to view information relating to a property in Gwynedd. The Council agreed to provide the information requested but only on provision of a fee based on the relevant property search regulations. The Commissioner has determined that the request was to inspect environmental information and as such, the Council should have allowed the complainant to inspect the information free of charge. It-™s attempt to levy a charge for the inspection of this information therefore represents a breach of regulation 8(2)(b) of the EIR.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: EIR 8 - Complaint Upheld, EIR 14 - Complaint Upheld
