Environment Agency

The complainant has requested a health risk assessment for tree removal works carried out by the Environment Agency (“EA”). The EA advised that it does not hold information within the scope of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that on the balance of probabilities, the EA does not hold the information requested and regulation 12(4)(a) of the EIR is engaged. The Commissioner does not require the EA to take any steps. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2023/0227 appeal struck out.
