Manchester City Council

The complainant requested information from Manchester City Council (“the Council”) relating to its climate change action plan with reports and guides stemming from that. The Council refused part of the request as it contained incomplete material. However, although some drafts were later provided to the complainant, the Commissioner is of the view that the information released does not constitute what was actually requested. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has breached regulations 5(1) and 5(2) of the EIR by not providing the information requested within the time for compliance. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Issue a fresh response to the request.

EIR 5(1): Complaint upheld EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld
