Department of Energy and Climate Change
7 March 2016, Central government
The complainant has requested information from the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) relating to the Biomass Suppliers List (BSL). DECC set out its response to questions 1, 2, 4 and 5 of the request but in response to question number 3, relied on regulation 13 (personal information) to refuse the request. During the course of the investigation, DECC disclosed the information requested at question 3. The Commissioner’s decision is that DECC has disclosed the requested information but that disclosure for part of the requested information was outside the statutory 20 day time limit and accordingly DECC has breached regulation 5(2) EIR. The Commissioner does not require DECC to take any further steps.
EIR 5(2): Upheld
