Dear D Little
Information request
Reference number: FOI2015/01203
Thank you for your request of 24th November 2015. You requested the following
information:
Can you confirm who owns the road in front of Victoria Station
where the old Taxi Rank use to be in Terminus Place and the date
the Taxi rank was suspended.
Also can you please confirm how much money has been paid to
yourselves from a company called the Big Bus company since the
relocation of the above Taxi rank. If possible could you kindly
break the figures down on a monthly bases,
I am processing your request under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act
2000 (FOIA). I can confirm that we hold the information you have requested, however
I need more time to consider your request. I will explain this further below.
We have a duty to respond to your request as soon as possible and in any event
within 20 working days after receiving your request. However, the FOIA allows us to
extend this deadline if a qualified exemption applies and we need more time to
consider where the balance of the public interest lies. Please note that this means we
are not required to provide a substantive response to your request until such time as
is reasonable in the circumstances.
The information you have requested engages the exemption from disclosure under
the following sections of the FOIA.
Network Rail Infrastructure Limited Registered Office: Network Rail, 2nd Floor, One Eversholt Street, London, NW1 2DN Registered in England and Wales No. 2904587 www.networkrail.co.uk
Section 43 (2)
This section provides an exemption for information, whose disclosure would be likely
to prejudice the commercial interests of any person.
Section 43 (2) is a qualified exemption, which means that to engage this exemption it
is necessary to consider whether the public interest in disclosure outweighs the
public interest in maintaining the exemptions.
I have not yet reached a decision on where the balance of the public interest lies, so I
will not be able to provide a full response within 20 working days. I will endeavour to
let you have a response by 26th January 2016 or sooner if possible.
If you have any enquiries about this response, please contact me in the first instance
a
t xxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xx.xx or on 01908 782405. Details of your appeal rights are
below.
Please remember to quote the reference number at the top of this letter in all future
communications.
Yours sincerely
Michelle Peace
Senior Information Officer
