Mr X and South Lanarkshire Council: SIC 22 Sep 2015

SIC Disturbances at a Specified Property – On 13 April 2015, Mr X asked South Lanarkshire Council (the Council) for information about disturbances at a specified property. The Council responded by refusing to confirm or deny whether it held any information. Following a review, Mr X remained dissatisfied and applied to the
Commissioner for a decision.
The Commissioner investigated and found that the Council had properly responded to Mr X’s request for information in accordance with Part 1 of FOISA. This was because she found that the Council was entitled neither to confirm nor deny whether it held information which would address Mr X’s request. She did not require the Council to take any action.
