The complainant made a request for all information held between 01/03/2015 and 08/03/2019 relating to four particular search terms. NE refused to comply with the request under regulation 12(4)(c) EIR as it considered the request was formulated in too general a manner. The Commissioner considers that NE incorrectly applied regulation 12(4)(c) EIR. The Commissioner requires the public authority to issue a fresh response to the complainant not relying upon the regulation 12(4)(c) exception.
