Bolton Council

The complainant requested information relating to a proposed Traffic Regulation Order (“TRO”). Bolton Council (the “council”) withheld the information under the exception for material in the course of completion – regulation 12(4)(d) of the EIR. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council correctly handled the request under the EIR and correctly withheld the requested information under regulation 12(4)(d). He does not require the council to take any steps.
