Brent Council
The complainant has requested detailed information about what happens to the recyclable materials, following their collection by the local authorities, namely Brent Council (BC). More specifically, the complainant wanted to know how the recyclates are being processed, what products are made from the recycled materials, which facilities are used for the recycling and the information relating to the number of employees at the facility. The complainant also asked whether the recyclable materials are being sold to other companies and who receives the money. BC provided some information in response to the two requests submitted, but explained that it did not hold some of the information sought. For such information, BC cited regulation 12(4)(a) (information not held) of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that, on balance of probabilities, the public authority did not hold any further information falling within the scope of the requests, beyond that provided to the complainant. The Commissioner does not require BC to take any further steps in this case.
EIR 12(4)(a):
Complaint not upheld
