London Borough of Croydon

The complainant has requested information about a specific planning application. The Commissioner’s decision is that the London Borough of Croydon (“the London Borough”) has failed to provide her with the appropriate reasons and evidence to support its position. She therefore finds that the London Borough was not entitled to rely on Regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR (Manifestly Unreasonable) to refuse this request. It also failed to carry out a Reconsideration (internal review) within 40 working days and thus breached Regulation 11(4). The Commissioner requires the London Borough to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: issue a fresh response which does not rely on Regulation 12(4)(b).

EIR 11(4): Complaint upheld EIR 12(4)(b): Complaint upheld
