High Speed Two Limited
The complainant has requested information about noise modelling in the Radstone area. High Speed Two Limited (‘HS2 Ltd’) released some information and withheld the remainder under regulation 12(4)(d) of the EIR (material in the course of completion). HS2 Ltd subsequently advised that it considers some of the withheld information also engages regulation 12(5)(e) (confidentiality of commercial or industrial information) and regulation 13 (personal data). The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: The information being withheld under only regulation 12(4)(d) of the EIR engages that exception but the public interest favours disclosure. The Commissioner requires HS2 Ltd to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Disclose the withheld information having first redacted from it the information categorised as commercially sensitive information under regulation 12(5)(e), and personal data as appropriate.EIR 12(4)(d): Complaint upheld
