The complainant submitted several requests for information about a Controlled Parking Zone. The Council initially provided some of the requested information, withheld other information, and stated some information was not held. Upon internal review, the Council applied the exclusions at sections 14(1) and 14(2). The Commissioner has investigated and concluded that the Council correctly applied section 14(1). However, the Council breached section 17(5) by failing to provide the complainant with a notice setting out its reliance on section 14 within the statutory time for compliance of 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any further action.
