Cornwall Council
24 February 2015, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested details of a proposed plan to place wind turbines on a number of sites within the county. The council applied Regulation 12(5)(e) to the information on the basis that the information is commercially confidential to it. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has correctly applied Regulation 12(5)(e) to the information. He has however also decided that the council did not comply with Regulation 5(2) in that it did not respond to the complainant’s request within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2015/0078 allowed in part.
EIR 12(5)(e): Not upheld
