West Felton Parish Council
17 October 2017, Local government (Parish council)
The complainant has requested information relating to a contract between West Felton Parish Council (the Council) and Greenfingers Groundforce Ltd. The Council refused to comply with the request for information as it deemed the request to be vexatious in accordance with section 14(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request is vexatious and that the Council has correctly applied section 14(1) of the FOIA to refuse the requested information. She also considers that the Council was not obliged to issue a refusal notice in respect of the request, in accordance with 17(6) of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps.
