The complainant requested from Shropshire Council information on any rules and regulations in place in relation to the obstruction of roads and footpaths in Shrewsbury town centre and Shropshire.

The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Issue a substantive response, under the EIR, to the request. The Council must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Freedom of Information Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.EIR 5(1): Complaint upheld EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld
