The complainant has requested information regarding a surveyor’s report for a specified property. The council provided a copy of the report but redacted some information on the basis of EIR 12(5)(d), confidentiality of proceedings. As it appeared that the withheld information constituted personal data, the Commissioner exercised his discretion and considered whether regulation 13 was engaged. His conclusion is that the information should be withheld on the basis of regulation 13 (personal information). The Commissioner does not require any steps.
