The complainant requested copies of legally binding agreements between the Homes and Communities Agency (‘HCA’) and Langtree Artisan relating to the former Odeon cinema in Bradford. HCA disclosed a copy of the agreement, subject to a small amount of information contained within the agreement which it withheld under section 43 of the FOIA. HCA considered that the request may fall under the provisions of the EIR and sought to also apply regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that the correct access regime is the EIR and HCA correctly applied regulation 12(5)(e) to the remaining withheld information. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
