Cheshire West and Chester Council
20 October 2016, Local government (County council)
The complainant has requested recorded information from Cheshire West and Chester Council. The requested information concerns an application to build houses on land off School Bank, Norley, Cheshire, under planning reference 14/00629/OUT. The Council has refused to disclose some of the recorded information it holds in reliance on Regulations 12(4)(e) – internal communications, 12(5)(b) – prejudice to the course of justice and 12(4)(d) – where the information is in the course of completion. The withheld information is not routinely published by the Council on its planning portal. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied Regulations 12(4)(e), 12(5)(b) and 12(4)(d) to the information it has not published on its planning portal. The Council is therefore entitled to withhold that information.
