Babergh District Council
17 May 2017, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested information regarding communication between Babergh District Council (the council) and Taylor Wimpey relating to the Wolsey Grange development. The council provided some information but sought to withhold the remainder under regulation 12(4)(d) and 12(5)(f) as the information is incomplete data and also its disclosure would adversely affect the interests of the developer. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has failed to adequately demonstrate that the exceptions at 12(4)(d) and 12(5)(f) apply to the requested information. The Commissioner requires the public authority to now disclose the information to ensure compliance with the legislation.
EIR 12(4)(d): Upheld EIR 12(5)(f): Upheld EIR 11(4): Upheld
