Health and Safety Executive
The complainant requested information from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) relating to a report on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. By the date of this notice the HSE had not issued a substantive response to this request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the HSE has failed to respond to the request within 20 working days and has therefore breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR. The Commissioner requires the HSE to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. The HSE must provide a substantive response to the request in accordance with its obligations under the EIR. The HSE must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Freedom of Information Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld
