The complainant requested information about achievement and management reviews of progress reports of the unit(s) carrying out compulsory purchases in relation to the Crossrail project. TfL refused to provide this information, and withheld it under section 43(2) of the Act. After investigating the case the Commissioner decided that the requested information was environmental information, as defined in regulation 2 of the EIR, and TfL should have considered this request under this legislation. Therefore TfL is required to reconsider the complainant’s request under the EIR.
