Homes & Communities Agency (Trading as Homes England)

The complainant has requested information regarding air monitoring relating to a large demolition and construction project. Homes England redacted information on the basis of EIR regulations 12(3) and 13(1) - third party personal data; and 12(5)(e) – confidentiality of commercial information. During the course of the investigation Homes England withdrew its reliance on regulation 12(5)(e) in favour of regulation 12(5)(f) – interests of the information provider. The Commissioner’s decision is that Homes England has appropriately relied upon the cited exceptions to withhold the requested information. Furthermore she finds that, on the balance of probabilities, Homes England has located all the information held in scope of the request. However it breached Regulation 5(2) in failing to respond to the request within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require any steps.

EIR 13(1): Complaint not upheld EIR 5(1): Complaint not upheld EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld EIR 12(5)(f): Complaint not upheld
