Brandon and Bretford Parish Council
10 September 2014, Local government (Parish council)
The complainants have requested information about burial procedures and associated processes undertaken by Brandon and Bretford Parish Council (BBPC). BBPC has considered the requests as vexatious and applied FOIA section 14. The Commissioner’s decision is that Brandon and Bretford Parish Council has correctly applied section 14 to the requests. He notes however that section 14 was applied to some of the requests outside the statutory time limit of 20 working days and therefore BBPC has breached section 17(5) of the FOIA. He does not require any steps to be taken. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2014/0249 dismissed.
FOI 14: Not upheld
