Northumberland County Council

The complainant requested information relating to the Council’s duties under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) Operating Guidance. The Council refused the two requests because it said they were not valid requests for recorded information. The Commissioner’s decision is that both requests were valid under section 8 of FOIA. Consequently the Commissioner finds that the Council has failed to comply with section 10(1) of FOIA in failing to issue a substantive response. The Commissioner requires the Council to respond to the requests.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 8: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: IC-46775
