North Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council

  • Date 17 September 2025
  • Sector Local government
  • Decision(s) EIR 12(4)(b): Not upheld

The complainant requested information relating to a fence. North Tyneside Council (the “council”) refused the request under regulation 12(4)(b) (manifestly unreasonable). The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was vexatious and therefore the council was entitled to rely upon Regulation 12(4)(b) to refuse it. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any further steps.
