9 July 2015, Local government (Parish council)
The complainant made three separate information requests on 16 July 2014, 13 August 2014 and 24 September 2014 requesting information in relation to the council’s insurance policy and an insurance claim. Longstanton Parish Council (the council) provided the complainant with some information and advised that no claim was made and therefore no claim details were held. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council does not hold any claim details, and on the balance of probabilities, he has determined that no claim was made. However the Commissioner has determined that the council does hold further information falling within the scope of the complainant’s request of the 16 July 2014. He has determined that the council holds correspondence between itself and the insurance company, recorded as minutes, which were made during a disciplinary investigation about the previous clerk. The Commissioner requires the public authority to either; provide the complainant with a copy of these minutes, identified in paragraph 3 above, or issue the complainant with a fresh response under the FOIA. The public authority must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
FOI 1: Upheld
