Newcastle City Council
24 June 2015, Local government (City council)
The complainant has made a request to Newcastle City Council (“the council”) for information relating to comments, feedback, issues and complaints deriving from specific addresses since 1962. The council refused to comply with the request on the basis that to do so would exceed the appropriate limit in costs set by section 12(1) of the Freedom of Information Act (“the FOIA”). The Commissioner’s decision is that the council correctly applied section 12(1). Additionally, the Commissioner found that the council had complied with section 16(1) by providing appropriate advice and assistance. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
FOI 12: Not upheld
