Lambeth London Borough Council

The complainant has requested information about works carried out by Lambeth London Borough Council (‘the Council’) in respect of a specific residential property. The Council refused to provide information requested in two parts, citing section 13 of the EIR (personal data) as its basis for doing so. The Council advised it does not hold information within scope of a third part of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: The Council is entitled to withhold information within scope of parts 1 and 7 of the request of 16 February 2021 under regulation 13 of the EIR as it is personal data and disclosure would be unlawful. Regulation 12(4)(a) is engaged with regard to part 3 because, on the balance of probabilities, the Council does not hold the specific information requested. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any remedial steps.

EIR 13: Complaint not upheld EIR 12(4)(a): Complaint not upheld
