Kent County Council

The complainant requested information from Kent County Council (“the Council”) relating to a specific verge and tree. The Council refused the request under regulation 12(4)(b) (manifestly unreasonable) of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to rely on regulation 12(4)(b) to refuse to comply with the request. However, he also finds that the Council breached regulation 11 (reconsideration) of the EIR by failing to provide the complainant with the outcome of its internal review within 40 working days. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps.

EIR 12(4)(b): Complaint not upheld EIR 11: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 290727
