Craven District Council
3 November 2016, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested information on the non-payment or late payment of council tax by elected members in the last two financial years. Craven District Council (the council) confirmed that one elected member had received a final notice for non-payment and a liability order was obtained in respect of another. At review stage, the council disclosed the amounts of arrears, but withheld the names of the elected officials under section 40(2). The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has incorrectly withheld the names of the elected officials under section 40(2). The Commissioner requires the council to disclose the withheld information.
