5 July 2017, Local government (Borough council)
The complainant has requested from Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council (the council), information regarding the numbers of buildings closed since 2010 due to government cuts. The council provided some information within the scope of the request, but stated that to locate and provide any further information that may be held would exceed the cost limit and that section 12 therefore applied. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was entitled to rely on section 12 to refuse the request in this case. She has also found that the council has provided appropriate advice and assistance and has therefore complied with section 16. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps in this case.
