National Archives
26 June 2014, Central government
The complainant has requested mining records dating from 1998 which are now held by The National Archives (TNA), having been transferred by The Coal Authority (CA). After consulting with the Coal Authority, The National Archives refused the request under regulation 12(5)(g) – protection of the environment to which the information relates. The Commissioner’s decision is that the exception provided by regulation 12(5)(g) is not engaged. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose the requested information; KD 2/8 Mining Reports System: Coal Authority’s legacy system, 1998 snapshot.
EIR 12(5)(g): Upheld
