Steyning Parish Council
The complainant requested copies of correspondence sent by a particular parish councillor. Steyning Parish Council initially refused the request as manifestly unreasonable before stating that it had disclosed the information voluntarily. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Parish Council did not in fact hold any relevant information for the purposes of the EIR. However, the Parish Council failed to issue a refusal notice stating that it did not hold the information within 20 working days and therefore breached Regulation 14(2) of the EIR. The Parish Council also failed to carry out a reconsideration (internal review) of its response and therefore breached Regulation 11 of the EIR. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
