North Yorkshire County Council
The complainant requested information held by North Yorkshire Council (the council) about safeguarding and risk assessments associated with a Drag Queen Story Hour event held at Skipton Library. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council is entitled to rely on section 14(1)(vexatious requests) of FOIA, as its basis for refusing the request. However, by failing to issue a refusal notice within 20 working days, the Commissioner has found that the council has breached section 17(1) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require further steps to be taken by the council.FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 14(1): Complaint not upheld
