Dransfield v Information Commission and another; Craven v Information Commissioner and another [2015] EWCA Civ 454, [2015] All ER (D) 132 (May)

Two appeals were heard together as they concerned common issues regarding s 14 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. In the second appeal, issues arose regarding requests for information made under reg 12 of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (SI 2004/331). The Court of Appeal, Civil Division, gave guidance on the meaning of “vexatious” and “manifestly unreasonable” and whether past requests could be taken into account in considering whether a fresh request was vexatious.
