Summary: The complainant made a request to Richmond Adult Community College (the -College-) on 26 March 2009 for minutes of meetings for the year 2007. The College refused the request for information as it deemed the request vexatious under section 14 of the Act and furthermore stated that to comply with the request would exceed the cost limit under section 12 of the Act. The College took into account a series of events leading up to the request on 26 March 2009, and deemed this request vexatious under section 14(1) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the -Act-). The Commissioner has considered this request in the context and background in which it was made and has decided that the College correctly applied section 14(1) of the Act.
