Hastings Borough Council
The complainant has requested for a list of all documents relating to the Hastings Harbour Quarter project (HHQ). Hastings Borough Council (HBC) provided some of the information but has withheld the remaining information under regulation 12(4)(b) of EIR (manifestly unreasonable requests) and regulation 12(4)(c) of the EIR (requests formulated in too general a manner). The Commissioner’s decision is that HBC were correct to rely on regulation 12(4)(b) of EIR to withhold some of the information. As this exception applies to the whole request it has not been necessary to consider regulation 12(4)(c). The Commissioner does not require HBC to take any steps as a result of this decision.EIR 12(4)(b): Complaint not upheld
Decision notice: 216804
