Wolverhampton City Council
9 August 2016, Local government (City council)
The complainant has requested information relating to organisational structure. The City of Wolverhampton Council (the Council) refused to comply with the request citing section 22(1) of the FOIA. However, the Commissioner considers that section 22(1) does not apply to this request. The Commissioner considers that the information had already been provided as part of a response to a previous request. Therefore the information was reasonably accessible to the complainant and exempt under section 21 of FOIA. As the Council was not obliged to provide the information to the complainant, section 11 (means for communication) does not arise.
