Shotteswell Parish Council
8 March 2016, Local government (Parish council)
The complainant has requested information relating to the tenders the council received in relation to the mowing of the Playing Field, Village Green and Hay Crop in the parish. He also requested information relating to the audit of accounts for 2014/15. The council disclosed some information, stated that other information is not held and advised the complainant that the two tenders it did receive were being withheld under section 43 of the FOIA. During the Commissioner’s investigation it was decided that the request should be considered under the EIR rather than the FOIA. The council advised that it now wished to rely on regulations 12(4)(a) and 12(5)(e) of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that regulations 12(4)(a) and 12(5)(e) of the EIR do apply and therefore no further action is required.
EIR 12(4)(a): Not upheld EIR 12(5)(e): Not upheld
