The public authority refused to comply with the request on the basis of section 12(1) FOIA (compliance would exceed the appropriate limit). The Commissioner concluded that the public authority was entitled to rely on section 12(1) FOIA. The Commissioner however found the public authority in breach of section 16(1) FOIA and ordered it to take steps to ensure compliance with the Act.FOI 12(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld
