20 September 2017, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested the GLA to disclose information associated with the 2012 London Olympics and the Compulsory Purchase Order of 2005 that was in place to assist its delivery. The GLA refused to respond to these requests, citing regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR. During the Commissioner’s investigation it was established that one of the requests was a FOIA request. A fresh response was issued advising the complainant that the GLA does not hold the requested information. The Commissioner has reviewed the handling of this request and has decided that, on the balance of probabilities, the GLA does not hold the requested information. For the remaining four requests, the GLA maintained its application of regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR. However, during the Commissioner’s investigation again, the complainant withdrew his complaint for two of these requests. The Commissioner has considered the application of regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR to the two remaining requests and she has decided that it is not engaged. She therefore requires the GLA to issue a fresh response to requests 3 and 5 to the complainant within 35 days of this notice.
FOI 1: Not upheld EIR 12(4)(b): Upheld EIR 5: Upheld EIR 11: Upheld
