Liverpool City Council
18 October 2016, Local government (City council)
The complainant has requested information regarding Liverpool City Council’s Operator Licensing Conditions Consultation relating to Private Hire and/or Uber’s operations. The Commissioner’s decision is that Liverpool City Council has correctly applied the exemption at section 12 of the FOIA where the cost of compliance exceeds the appropriate limit. However, the Commissioner has also decided that Liverpool City Council did not provide adequate advice and assistance under section 16 of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the public authority to provide the complainant with appropriate advice and assistance with regard to the requested information that can be provided, to enable an appropriately refined request to be made if necessary to ensure compliance with the legislation.
