Boughton Malherbe Parish Council

The complainant has requested information from Boughton Malherbe Parish Council (the Council) about a village green. The Council refused to disclose the requested information due to it being commercially sensitive. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was entitled to withhold the information under regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR. However, the Council breached regulation 14(3) of the EIR as it incorrectly issued its refusal under FOIA and not the EIR. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any further steps.

EIR 14(3): Complaint upheld EIR 12(5)(e): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 206063
