Plymouth City Council
The complainant has requested information relating to the council’s response statistics to FOI requests. The council initially provided some information and said that other information is available online. When the complainant said he wanted the latter information in hard copy, it applied section 14 and declared the request vexatious. During the course of the Commissioner's investigation, however, it disclosed the information to the complainant in full. The complainant believes that the council has failed to provide him with the information he requested. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has disclosed the requested information as required by section 1(1) of the FOIA. However, she has also decided that the council failed to comply with the requirements of section 10(1) in that it did not disclose the information to the complainant within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.FOI 1(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 10(1): Complaint not upheld
