Local government (Town council)
The complainant has requested a copy of a report which was provided to Hungerford Town Council (‘the Council’) by Ashburn Planning. The Council refused to disclose the report in reliance of the exception to disclosure provided by Regulation 12(5)(d) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has properly applied Regulation 12(5)(d) to the report and is therefore entitled to withhold it from the complainant. The Commissioner requires no further action to be taken by the public authority. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2015/0029 dismissed.
