Devon County Council
The complainant requested information in relation to a footpath. Devon County Council (the council) refused the request under regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR as manifestly unreasonable. The Commissioner’s decision is that regulation 12(4)(b) is not engaged. The Commissioner requires the council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Issue a fresh response to the complainant in accordance with the EIR, without relying on regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR. The council must take these steps within 30 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
EIR 12(4)(b):
Complaint upheld
Decision notice:
286941
