The complainant requested information from Cheshire East Council (‘the Council’) relating to the use of an alleyway. The Commissioner’s decision is that the requested information is environmental in nature; however, the Council does not hold any recorded information falling within the scope of the request, other than information which is publicly accessible on its website. The Council breached the requirement, under regulation 14(2) of the EIR, to provide its refusal within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps to ensure compliance with the EIR.
