17 September 2015, Local government (Borough council)
The complainant submitted a request to the public authority in relation to Britwell Parish Council elections held in May 2014. The public authority considered the tone and language used by the complainant against the background of his dissatisfaction with the conduct of the election and in the context of other similar requests the authority had received from him. The public authority consequently decided on that basis that the request was vexatious within the meaning in section 14(1) FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority was entitled to refuse to comply with the complainant’s request in reliance on section 14(1) FOIA. No steps are required.
FOI 14: Not upheld
