Isle of Anglesey County Council (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50448174 (13 November 2012)
Summary: The complainant requested information about planning agreements which the Isle of Anglesey County Council (-˜the Council-™) had entered into from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2011. The Council initially stated that it did not hold the information requested, and later, in its internal review it alluded to compliance with the request exceeding the appropriate cost limit under the FOIA. During the course of the Commissioner-™s investigation, the Council agreed that the request was for environmental information and the correct access regime was the EIR. The Council sought to rely in regulation 12(4)(b) as it considered the request to be manifestly unreasonable. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the request is manifestly unreasonable and the Council was entitled to refuse it under regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: EIR 12.4.b - Complaint Not upheld
