Hertfordshire County Council
11 February 2016, Local government (County council)
The complainant has requested information relating to a village green application which was made to the council by a local resident. The council provided some information however it withheld other information on the basis that Regulation 12(5)(b) (course of justice) applied, and also Regulation 13 (personal data). The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was not correct to apply 12(5)(b) to the information as the public interest rests in its disclosure. He has however decided that it was correct to apply Regulation 13.The Commissioner requires the public authority disclose the information which the council considered exempt under Regulation 12(5)(b).
EIR 12(5)(b): Upheld FOI 13: Not upheld
