However, it decided to redact parts of the information disclosed citing regulation 13 (personal data) of the EIR.
The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council on balance of probabilities held no further information to what was already disclosed and the Council was correct to redact parts of the information provided in compliance with regulation 13 of the EIR.
