1. Please provide any correspondence held in relation to the the initial proposal for residents parking at Tors Road, Lynmouth
Please refer to this email from one local resident.
Some of the information has been greyed out. This information is exempt from disclosure under Section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (Personal Data).
The Council cannot disclose personal information if releasing it would contravene any of the provisions in the Data Protection Act 2018. In this instance release of this information would contravene the first data protection principle and therefore the information is withheld.
No further information or emails are held by Devon County Council about which residents requested the scheme.
2. Please provide a copy of the comments submitted in response to the consultation
This information is exempt from disclosure under Section 22 of the Freedom of Information Act (Information Intended for Future Publication).
Devon County Council can confirm the requested information is held but it is intended for future publication once the consultation period ends. Given the information is to be published in due course, and in line with accepted practices, it is reasonable to withhold the information.
The Council has considered the public interest in releasing this information and recognises there is a public interest in openness and transparency. However, there is a stronger public interest in allowing the consultation to complete without unfair influence or bias. In releasing the information, the consultation is likely to be impacted, and it has the potential to undermine the democratic process, which is not in the best interests of the public. Therefore the balance of public interest weighs in favour of withholding this information from disclosure.
3. Please provide all minutes from Devon County Council North Devon Highways and Traffic Orders Committee regarding this proposal
Devon County Council does not hold this information. This matter has not been discussed at a North Devon Highways and Traffic Orders Committee, the decision has been made through delegated powers. Therefore, there are no minutes held, as the information does not exist.
