Halton Borough Council

The complainant requested information about the finances and use of the Silver Jubilee and Mersey Gateway bridges.  Halton Borough Council responded, supplying some information falling within the scope of the request but confirming some information was not held.  After further clarification of the information requested, the Council applied section 43 of the FOIA – commercial interests, to some of the requested information.  During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation, the Council decided to release the withheld information.  The Commissioner’s decision is that Halton Borough Council has breached section 10 of the FOIA by failing to provide all the information held within 20 working days.  As the Council has now disclosed the information, the Commissioner does not require it to take any steps.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: fs50766640
