Summary: The complainant requested data from two closed circuit television cameras for a specified time period. The public authority originally stated that the information was exempt under section 40 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 but later stated that it did not hold the requested information at the time of the request. The Commissioner has investigated and found that on the balance of probabilities the information was not held at the time of the request. The Commissioner found procedural breaches in the way the request was handled but there are no practical steps he can order.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld
