Wolverhampton City Council
The complainant requested information from Wolverhampton City Council (“the Council”) relating to the use of Energy from Waste in the city. The Council withheld some of the requested information under regulation 12(4)(e) (internal communications) of the EIR and denied holding some of the information requested. The Commissioner’s decision is that: the Council has failed to demonstrate that regulation 12(4)(e) is engaged for the information that it has withheld on this basis; on the balance of probabilities, the Council holds information within the scope of part 4 of the request. The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose the information withheld under regulation 12(4)(e), making appropriate redactions for any personal data; issue a fresh response to part 4 of the request following searches aimed at identifying all information held within the scope of this part of the request, which is all information held about how the Council may implement household food collection.EIR 12(4)(e): Complaint upheld EIR 12(4)(a): Complaint upheld
