Colchester Borough Council
The complainant has requested information about the housing of offenders released from custody. Colchester Borough Council stated that some of the information requested was not held. With regard to the remainder of the request it stated that it was unable to establish whether it held this information within the cost limit and therefore refused the request under section 12(2) of the FOIA (cost of compliance exceeds appropriate limit). The Commissioner’s decision is that on the balance of probabilities Colchester Borough Council do not hold the stated information and that it is entitled to rely of section 12(2) in relation to the remainder of the request. However it breached section 10 in failing to respond to all elements of the request within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require Colchester Borough Council to take any steps.FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 1: Complaint not upheld FOI 12: Complaint not upheld
