Wrexham County Borough Council

The complainant submitted an information request to Wrexham County Brough Council (the Council) for a copy of the report titled Wrexham Gateway-Delivery of LUF and its appendices. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 36(2)(b)(ii) of FOIA is engaged. However, he finds that the public interest in maintaining the exemption does not outweigh the public interest in disclosure. He also finds that section 36(2)(c) is not engaged. The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Disclose the requested information, with any personal data redacted. The public authority must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of FOIA and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.

FOI 36: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 244682
