High Speed Two Limited
The complainant has requested from HS2 a copy of the service agreement between it and a property management and estate service company. HS2 released relevant information it holds, withholding some under section 43(2) of the FOIA (commercial interests).The Commissioner considers that HS2 should have dealt with the request under the EIR as the information requested is environmental information under regulation 2(1). She has decided however that the information HS2 has withheld engages regulation 12(5)(e) (commercial or industrial information) and that the public interest favours maintaining this exception. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.EIR 12(5)(e): Complaint not upheld
