Thanks for responses so far.
Philip: The extra burden is printing out thousands of pages of info from different systems (which we simply cannot afford to replace. I wish we could!), getting info from our contractors etc etc. It costs in staff time as well as the costs of printing and postage. All for £10.
David, Vinci parking run our parking enforcement for us. I would not want to proactively encourage requesters to come in and inspect if an exemption applies, as much of the info is on their systems as well as ours and the redaction of thirsd party info involved becomes a nightmare.
I would love to test the disproportionate effort exemption more often in DP tbh but the ICO seem to frown upon it very much. Have other people actually started to use this exemption in line with the FOI limits? Anyone had any appeals against it if they've used it?
He's asking for stuff that he actually doesn't get under the appeals process too, that could be argued prejudices our case. Which is why I really want to explore the exemptions route.
