15 February 2016, Local government (City council)
The complainant has requested a breakdown of cost information with regards to pay and display machines. Bristol City Council (the council) advised that it does not record the information in a way which would provide the complainant with the information he requires and therefore does not hold the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council does not hold the requested information. The Commissioner has also found that the council has breached section 10(1) of the FOIA as it did not respond to the complainant’s request within the required 20 working days from receipt of it. As the council has now responded and it has been determined the requested information is not held, the Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
FOI 1: Not upheld FOI 10: Upheld
