The complainant requested from Warwick District Council information relating to the cancellation of Penalty Charge Notices. The Council disclosed held information that it considered fell within the parameters of the request, and stated that some of the requested information, whilst possibly held on behalf of another person, would not be held by the Council for the purposes of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council disclosed all held information. In respect of that information which the Council claims may be held on behalf of another person, the Commissioner is satisfied that, whilst such information may be physically held by the Council, it is not held for the purposes of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.
