West Sussex County Council
The complainant requested correspondence regarding the purchase of land for the development of a bypass. West Sussex County Council (“the Council”) initially refused the request under section 40(2) of the FOIA (personal data). The Council later issued a revised response to the complainant within which it withheld the information under regulation 13 of the EIR (personal data) and regulation 12(5)(e). The Council later issued a further revised response to the complainant within which it withheld the information under regulation 13 and regulation 12(5)(d) of the EIR (confidentiality of proceedings). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly cited regulations 13 and 12(5)(d) of the EIR as a basis for non-disclosure. Therefore the Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.EIR 13: Complaint not upheld EIR 12(5)(d): Complaint not upheld
