Lee Valley Regional Park Authority
The complainant has requested copies of business plans. The above public authority relied on regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR to withhold the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority has not demonstrated that regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR is engaged in relation to the indicative business plan. The final business plan does engage the exception and the public interest favours maintaining this exception. The public authority also breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR, as it disclosed information outside of the 20 working timeframe and regulation 14 as it failed to deal with the request under the EIR within 20 working days. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose, to the complainant, an unredacted copy of the indicative business plan.EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld EIR 14: Complaint upheld EIR 12(5)(e): Complaint partly upheld
