Salford City Council
7 November 2016, Local government (City council)
The complainant requested information relating to the sale or disposal of land at John William Street, Eccles, Manchester. Salford City Council (‘the Council’) disclosed some information and withheld other information in reliance of the exceptions at regulations 12(4)(e), 12(5)(e), 12(5)(f), 12(5)(b) and 13(2). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has appropriately applied regulations 12(5)(b), 12(5)(e) and 13(2) to the information it is withholding. The Commissioner therefore requires no steps to be taken. However, the Commissioner finds the Council to be in breach of regulation 5(2) of the EIR by failing to provide the requested information within 20 working days, and regulation 14(2) by failing to issue a refusal notice within 20 working days.
EIR 12(5)(b): Not upheld EIR 13(2): Not upheld EIR 14(2): Upheld EIR 12(5)(e): Not upheld EIR 5(2): Upheld
