Boroughbridge Town Council

The complainant has requested an audio recording of a committee meeting. Boroughbridge Town Council (“the Council”) refused to provide the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has failed to issue an adequate refusal notice. It has thus not complied with its duty on section 1(1) of the FOIA and has breached section 17 of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: either provide the complainant with a copy of the requested information or issue a refusal notice which complies with section 17 of the FOIA.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 1: Complaint upheld
