SIC On 25 May 206, Mr Mackay asked Scottish Borders Council (the Council) for information relating to the Council’s actions under the Curators ad Litem and Reporting Officers (Panels) (Scotland) Regulations 2001.
The Council did not respond to the request. Following a review, the Council informed Mr Mackay that it considered his requests to be vexatious. Mr Mackay remained dissatisfied and applied to the Commissioner for a decision.
The Commissioner investigated and found that, whether intentional or not, Mr Mackay’s request had the effect of harassing the Council, and it was entitled to refuse to comply with the request on the grounds that it was vexatious.
