Brent Council (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50350084 (10 May 2011)
Summary: The complainant requested statistical information relating to the council-™s response to FOI requests. He requested this information through the WDTK website and asked the council to respond directly to that site. The council initially refused to respond directly to the site and asked the complainant for an alternative address. The complainant eventually agreed to do this. The council then issued a refusal notice under section 12 of the Act (appropriate limit). However, although it refused the request on that basis, the council did provide the complainant with much of the information which it held. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the Council was correct to apply section 12 to the information.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 12 - Complaint Not upheld
