London Borough of Enfield
The applicant has requested information relating to a major programme of works on a block of flats. The Commissioner’s decision is that London Borough of Enfield (the Council) was entitled to aggregate all six requests in accordance with section 12(4) of FOIA. However, it has failed to provide sufficient evidence to support the application of section 12(1). The Commissioner also finds that the Council incorrectly cited section 14(1) of the FOIA in response to the request. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Issue a fresh response without relying on either of the previously cited exemptions. The public authority must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.FOI 14: Complaint upheld FOI 12: Complaint upheld
