London Borough of Harrow

The complainant has requested legal advice provided to the London Borough of Harrow in regards to its legal challenge against the Mayor of London’s decision to extend the Ultra Low Emissions zone (ULEZ). The London Borough of Harrow (“the Council”) refused part 1 and 2 of the request citing Legal Professional Privilege (LPP) and stated that information within the scope of part 3(a) and (b) of the request was not held. The Council provided some information within the scope of part 3(c)(i) and (ii) of the request. For procedural reasons the Commissioner has considered this element of the complaint under regulation 12(4)(a) (information not held) and regulation 12(5)(b)(the course of justice) of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was entitled to rely on regulation 12(5)(b) of the EIR to withhold the requested information sought at parts 1 and 2 of the request, and that it does not hold any further information within the scope of part 3(a) and (b) of the request. The Commissioner does not require further steps.

EIR 12(4)(a): Complaint not upheld EIR 12(5)(b): Complaint not upheld
