- Date 18 July 2023
- Sector Local government
- Decision(s) EIR 12.4.e: Not upheld
The complainant requested, from Pembrokeshire County Council (“the Council”), a copy of an audit report produced in relation to processes relating to a redevelopment project at South Quay. The Council refused to provide a copy of the report, citing regulation 12(4)(e) (internal communications) and regulation 12(5)(f) (interests of the information provider) as its bases for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to rely on regulation 12(4)(e) to withhold all of the withheld information, he therefore has not gone on to consider the Council’s application of regulation 12(5)(f). The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps. Information Tribunal FTT EA/2023/0367 appeal allowed. Information Tribunal UT UA-2024-000191-GIA PTA refused.
