Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs
The complainant has requested information relating to meetings with specific companies. The above public authority relied on regulations 12(4)(d) (material in the course of completion) and 12(4)(e) of the EIR (internal communications) to withhold the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that regulation 12(4)(d) is engaged, but that the public interest favours disclosure. Regulation 12(4)(e) is engaged in respect of all the information to which the public authority has applied it, but the public interest only favours maintaining the exception for some of the information. For the remaining information, the public interest favours disclosure. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose a copy of the letter identified in paragraph 10 and the readouts identified in paragraph 21.
EIR 12(4)(d):
Complaint upheld
EIR 12(4)(e):
Complaint partly upheld
Decision notice:
