Wrexham County Borough Council
The complainant has requested information relating to looked-after children. Some information was provided but the remainder of the request was refused under section 12(1) of the FOIA because responding to it would have exceeded the cost limit. The Commissioner’s decision is that Wrexham County Borough Council (the “Council”) was entitled to rely on section 12 of the FOIA to refuse the request. However, she also finds that the Council failed to discharge its section 16 duty to provide adequate advice and assistance. The Commissioner requires the Council to provide the complainant with advice and assistance to determine what, if any, information of interest within scope may be provided within the cost limit.FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld
