Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland

The complainant has requested information relating to non-compliance with the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. The Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI) refused to disclose the information, citing section 31(1)(g) (law enforcement) and section 40(2) (personal information) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the withheld information engages section 31(1)(g) and the public interest lies in maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner has also decided that HSENI is entitled to withhold the personal information requested under section 40(2). The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.
