The complainant has requested information from Stoke-on-Trent City Council (the ‘Council’) relating to repairs and maintenance for Queens Theatre, Burslem. After initially refusing, the Council provided information upon internal review. However, it neglected to provide scaffolding permits for 2012. Following the Commissioner’s intervention it provided these permits. However, its response contravened the requirements of Regulation 5 and Regulation 11 of the EIR. These relate to the timeliness of its compliance with information access requests and requests for internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has contravened its obligations under Regulation 5(2) and Regulation 11(4) of the EIR. No steps are required.
