Cheshire East Council

The complainant requested information from Cheshire East Council (the Council) relating to its SEND/EHCP provision. The Council initially responded with a link to its website, however, at internal review, the Council apologised for its initial response and made a limited disclosure. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council, on the balance of probabilities, has now provided the information within scope of the refined request. However, the Council has breached section 10(1) and section 17(1) of FOIA by failing to respond to the original request within 20 working days and issue an appropriate refusal notice. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken as a result of this decision.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 1(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 10(1): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 240647
