    Response

    NOTICE OF REFUSAL

    Hastings Borough Council has asked you to clarify the exact location of Bunger Hill Farm on several occasions which has not been forthcoming. Therefore your request is now being refused under Section 14(1) of the Freedom of Information Act - Vexatious.

    The reasons of refusal are listed below. Section 14(1) has no public interest test.

    1. Authorities do not have to respond to requests that are vexatious.

    2. The tone and language of your correspondence goes beyond the level of criticism that a public authority or its employees expect to receive.

    3. Hastings Borough Council has tried to engage with you however, you are rejecting attempts to assist and advise and show no willingness to provide the information that the information officer has asked you to provide.

    4. The effort required to meet the request is grossly oppressive in terms of the strain on time and resources. This is a burden on the authority and cannot reasonably be expected to comply.

    5. The impact on the local authority cannot be justified.
