Summary: The complainant made a request to Nottingham City Council (the -˜Council-™) for information about the amount of heat sold in a particular period by Enviroenergy, an energy company owned by the Council. The Council charged the complainant a fee of £900 for the information under regulation 8 of the EIR. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the Council did not charge a reasonable fee and therefore breached regulation 8(3). He has also found that the Council breached regulation 8(4) by failing to issue the fees notice within 20 working days and regulation 11(4) by failing to provide an internal review response within 40 working days.
