SIC Application for High Hedge Notice – On 2 April 2015, Mrs Murray asked East Lothian Council (the Council) for information relating to an application for a high hedge notice. The Council responded by providing some information, with personal data redacted. Following a review, Mrs Murray remained dissatisfied and applied to the Commissioner for a decision.
The Commissioner investigated and found that the Council had partially failed to respond to Mrs Murray’s request for information in accordance with FOISA and the EIRs. This was because the Council failed to disclose to Mrs Murray all the information it held that fell within her request. As the Council has now disclosed this information, the Commissioner does not require the Council to take any further action. The Commissioner is satisfied that all relevant information had been provided to Mrs Murray by the end of the investigation.
