Oxfordshire County Council

The complainant requested various information from Oxford County Council (‘the Council’) in respect of siblings subject to an LAC status (Looked After Children) who had been separated. The Council provided some information but confirmed that it did not record the remaining detail the complainant had requested and cited section 12 (cost of compliance) FOIA to refuse the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was not entitled to rely on section 12 FOIA in respect of this request for information. The Commissioner has also recorded a breach of section 17(5) due to the Council’s failure to provide its response within the statutory timeframe.

FOI 12: Complaint upheld FOI 17(5): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 253455
