Department for Transport

The complainant made four separate sets of requests to the Highways Agency from April to May 2012 for information in relation to how litter is managed on its road network. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority was entitled to rely on the exception at regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR to deny the requests. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2013/0027 allowed.
