The complainant has requested a copy of the minutes of a closed session of Four Marks Parish Council. The Commissioner’s decision is that Four Marks Parish Council has correctly applied the exception for internal communications at Regulation 12(4)(e) of the EIR to agenda item 14.162. He has also decided that agenda item 14.161 does not constitute environmental information as defined by regulation 2(1) of the EIR. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Tribunal. The Commissioner requires the public authority to either provide the information at agenda item 14.161 to the complainant or issue a valid refusal notice under the FOIA.
