The complainant has requested copies of correspondence and invoices sent between Lanteglos by Fowery Parish Council (the council) and its auditor and bank for a specific period. The council initially responded by providing some information but refusing the remainder under sections 43(2) and 41 of the FOIA. This was upheld in its internal review. During the Commissioner’s initial investigations the council amended its response to rely on section 14(1) of the FOIA as it considered the request to be vexatious. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has correctly relied on section 14(1) of the FOIA to withhold the information. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
