Islington Council (Decision Notice): ICO 27 Sep 2012

The complainant requested information from the London Borough of Islington (the council) relating to major works, external repairs 2010-2011 to a named block of flats in Islington. The council refused to respond to the request because it considered that it was vexatious under section 14(1) and section 14(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the FOIA), the exclusion relating to vexatious and repeated requests. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council correctly refused to respond to the request by citing section 14(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2012/0226 dismissed.
Section of Act/EIR and Finding: FOI 14 – Complaint Not upheld
