Eastbourne Borough Council
The complainant has requested information from Lewes and Eastbourne Borough Council (“the council”) regarding an increase to the rental rates for beach huts.The council withheld some information on the basis of section 43(2) (commercial interests) of FOIA, and stated that further information was not held.The Commissioner’s decision is that section 43(2) was correctly applied and the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure. The Commissioner also finds that, on the balance of probabilities, no further information is held by the council. No steps are required.FOI 43(2): Complaint not upheld FOI 1: Complaint not upheld
