Road and Pavement Repairs – On 17 October 2014, Mr Tobermann asked City of Edinburgh Council (the Council) for a list of defects relating to recent road and pavement works on a section of Leith Walk, Edinburgh.
The Council considered the request under the EIRs and refused to provide the information, for reasons including commercial confidentiality. Following a review, Mr Tobermann remained dissatisfied and applied to the Commissioner for a decision.
The Commissioner investigated and found that the Council had correctly withheld the information under regulation 10(5)(e) of the EIRs, on the basis of commercial confidentiality.
