institution
An institution applied to the Information Commissioner for approval to decline an access to information request, arguing it was vexatious and an abuse of access rights. The Commissioner found the request was an abuse of access rights due to its duplicative nature and a pattern of repeated requests for the same information, despite prior access requests and complaints. The Commissioner approved the institution's application to decline acting on the request.
