London Borough of Brent
1. The complainant submitted a request to the London Borough of Brent (the Council) seeking planning information about a particular housing development. The Council provided him with information falling within the scope of his request and directed him to a website where further information could be found. The complainant argued that the link provided did not work and furthermore that the Council had not provided him with all of the information falling with the scope of his request. The Council subsequently provided the complainant with copies of the information which could be found at the website link but maintained its position that it did not hold any further information falling within the scope of the request. The Commissioner is satisfied that on the balance of probabilities the Council does not hold any further information falling within the scope of the request beyond that provided to the complainant. However, she has concluded that the Council breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR by providing some of the information in the scope of the request outside of the 20 working days period required by the legislation.
EIR 5(1):
Complaint not upheld
EIR 5(2):
Complaint upheld
