Cheshire East Council (Decision Notice) [2013] UKICO FER0480436 (16 October 2013)
Summary: The complainant has requested information relating to a proposal to build a waste transfer station at Lyme Green near Macclesfield. The request included the notes of any meetings or reports held in relation with this development, together with any communications on the subject. The Council initially withheld the majority of the information but during the course of the investigation it undertook to provide the requested information. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the Council has now provided all the requested information, apart from a limited amount which has been withheld under regulation 12(5)(b) on the basis that it is covered by legal professional privilege. The complainant has not contested the application of this exception. The complainant does however believe the Council holds further information. The Commissioner is satisfied that it has now located all the information that falls within the scope of the request. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further action in this matter.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: EIR 5 - Complaint Not upheld, EIR 12.5.b - Complaint Not upheld
