The complainant requested various items of information from Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council (‘the Council’), in respect of a feasibility study in relation to traffic controls outside the front of her property. Although she did not initially receive a response, following the Commissioner’s intervention the Council subsequently provided its response. The Commissioner’s decision is that in providing its response after the required 20 working days, the Council has breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR. As a response has now been provided the Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Tribunal.
