Halton Borough Transport Ltd
14 August 2017, Private companies
The complainant has requested information relating to the number of drivers prosecuted for failing to comply with their lawful duties to allow wheelchair users access to the buses. Halton Borough Transport Limited (HBT) has explained that it is not a public authority for the purposes of the FOIA. It has therefore refused to respond to this request under the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that HBT is not a public authority for the purposes of the FOIA. She therefore upholds HBT’s position and requires no steps to be taken in this case.
FOI 6: Not upheld
