7 March 2017, Central government
The complainant requested information relating to an application made for a particular property to be listed. The Welsh Government disclosed the documents requested, subject to some information being redacted under section 40(2). During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation the Welsh Government disclosed some additional information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request falls to be considered under the EIR and the Welsh Government has correctly applied regulation 13 to the remaining withheld information. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
EIR 13: Not upheld
