London Borough of Havering
The complainant has requested a copy of a footway parking resolution from the London Borough of Havering (the Council). The Commissioner’s decision is that the request should have been handled under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR) rather than the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). The Commissioner also finds that the Council has breached regulation 11 by failing to issue an internal review within 40 working days. The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Issue a fresh response (an internal review) to the request under 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 5: Complaint upheld EIR 11: Complaint upheld
