Plymouth City Council
28 January 2016, Local government (City council)
The complainant has requested information connected with the use of Plymouth Hoe Promenade. Plymouth City Council (‘PCC’) provided most of the requested information but refused to disclose information connected to the use of the area by Plymouth University, citing section 43(2) (commercial interests) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 43(2) is not engaged. The Commissioner requires PCC to disclose the Heads of Terms Licence document entitled: “Plymouth University Use of Plymouth Hoe”. PCC must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
FOI 43: Upheld
