Wembdon Parish Council
The complainant asked a series of questions relating to a set of gates placed in a country park. The council said that the questions were not EIR requests for information, and also that it did not hold relevant information as regards a second part of the request. The complainant was unsatisfied with the format in which the response was issued to him. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council’s response complied with the requirements of Regulation 6 in that the request did not specifically state the format with which the response should be issued. She also considers that Regulation 6 refers to the format of the disclosed information, not to the format of any response sent to a requestor. She has decided however that the council did not comply with the requirements of Regulation 11(4) in that it did not issue its review response within 40 working days. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
EIR 11(4):
Complaint upheld
EIR 6(1):
Complaint not upheld
