Land Registry

9 March 2015, Central government

The complainant submitted two requests to the Land Registry concerning a particular piece of land. The Land Registry explained that it did not hold any information falling within the scope of either request. The complainant disputed this position. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation the Land Registry located one document which the Commissioner determined fell within the scope of one of the requests and this was provided to the complainant. The Commissioner is satisfied that on the balance of probabilities the Council does not hold any further information falling within the scope of either request.
