HM Treasury
The complainant submitted two requests, seeking the same information, to HM Treasury (HMT) asking for a list of communications and documents held by it relating to Lydian International’s Amulsar gold mining project in Armenia. HMT sought to withhold the information on the basis of regulation 12(5)(a) (international relations) of the EIR. It subsequently withdrew its reliance on this exception during the course of the Commissioner’s investigation and provided the complainant with the information he had requested. The Commissioner has concluded that HMT has breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR by failing to provide the complainant with the requested information within 20 working days of either request.EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld
