The complainant has made a request to Arun District Council (‘the council’) for information about a community group that is represented on the Bognor Regis Regeneration Board. The council refused the request under regulation 12(4)(b) of the Environmental Information Regulations (‘the EIR’). The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has correctly refused the request under regulation 12(4)(b), but should also have cited section 12(1) of the Freedom of Information Act (‘the FOIA’). The Commissioner has also identified that the council breached the requirement of regulation 11(4). The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
FOI 12: Not upheld EIR 11(4): Upheld EIR 12(4)(b): Not upheld
