The complainant has requested information as to why his property was designated as being within green belt land following a review by the council. He also requested information as to why it was not included within the designated boundary of a village. The request followed the complainant making a previous subject access request under the Data Protection Act 1998 (the ‘DPA’) to the council following which information had been disclosed to him. The council providing him with links to documents on its website. Further to this it responded stating that it does not hold any further information beyond that which had been provided to him previously in response to his request under the DPA. The Commissioner’s decision is that on a balance of probabilities the council does not hold any further information falling within the scope of the complainant's request.
