Gateshead Council
The complainant requested information relating to a residential development. The Council disclosed some information, but withheld a Viability Report under the exception provided by regulation 12(5)(e) (commercial confidentiality). The Commissioner’s decision is the Council was correct to apply the exception to some parts of the Viability Report (namely, those parts specified in Annex A), however he has decided that it was not correct to apply the exception to the entirety of it. The Commissioner is satisfied that all other held information has been disclosed. The Commissioner requires the Council to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Disclose the Viability Report, but with those parts specified in Annex A redacted.
