24 June 2015, Local government (County council)
The complainant has requested information relating to Hertfordshire County Council’s temporary closure of twenty two roads in 2014 for road maintenance purposes. In the Commissioner’s opinion the information which the complainant seeks constitutes environmental information and falls to be considered under the provisions of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has contravened Regulation 5(2) of the EIR by failing to disclose the requested information within the twenty working days compliance period. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any further action in this matter.
