8 October 2014, Local government (Borough council)
The complainants requested information relating to proposals by Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council (the Council) to build a children’s home within the complainants’ village. The Council received 27 requests in a 50 day period from the complainants. The requests were handled under both the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act) and the Environmental Information Regulations (EIR). The Council complied with the first four requests but refused the remainder. The Commissioner’s decision is that Council has not demonstrated that section 12 applies to the requests. However, the Commissioner is satisfied that the requests can be refused as vexatious or manifestly unreasonable, and that the public interest test favours maintaining the exception. No further action is required.
