The complainant has requested information relating to how Hurworth Parish Council (‘the council’) deals with the Freedom of Information Act 2000, how it dealt with standards board complaints and information relating to an event held for some members of HMS Hurworth. The Commissioner’s decision is that Hurworth Parish Council has incorrectly applied the vexatious provision at section 14(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the public authority to issue fresh responses to the requests under the FOIA without relying on s14.
