Leicestershire County Council
The complainant requested information from Leicestershire County Council (“the Council”) about road inspection reports for a particular road for the years 2014 to 2020. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation the Council disclosed the road inspection reports, however, within the reports from the past six years, it redacted specific dates that defects in the road condition were logged and then repaired. It withheld this information under regulation 12(5)(b) of the EIR on the basis that to disclose this information would adversely affect the course of justice. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied regulation 12(5)(b). The Commissioner does not require further steps.EIR 12(5)(b): Complaint not upheld
Decision notice: 137136
