National Archives
The complainant has requested the closed file PREM 19/4954 ROYAL FAMILY. HRH The Prince of Wales: part 3. The National Archives (TNA) provided some environmental information contained within the requested information. It withheld the remaining information contained within the requested file under section 37(1)(a)(communications with the Sovereign), section 40(2)(personal data) and section 41(1)(information provided in confidence) as it did not consider this constituted environmental information. The Commissioner’s decision is that TNA breached regulation 5(2) EIR as it took 60 working days to provide the environmental information held falling within the scope of the request. However TNA has correctly withheld the remaining requested information from disclosure under section 37(1)(a) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require TNA to take any remedial steps.EIR 5: Complaint upheld FOI 37: Complaint not upheld
