Oadby and Wigston Borough Council

The complainant has made a request for information to Oadby and Wigston Borough Council (the Council), regarding Council tax enforcement and a copy of reports.

The Commissioner requires the Council to provide a fresh response to the request, that does not rely on section 12 of 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.
