- Authority Forestry Commission
- Decision(s) EIR 14.2: Upheld, EIR 5.1: Upheld, EIR 5.2: Upheld
The complainant has requested information associated with a report about a landslide. The Forestry Commission (FC) disclosed relevant information, withholding some under regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR (commercial information) and 12(5)(g) (protection of the environment). The complainant considers that FC holds further information within scope of their request. The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, FC holds no further relevant information. However, the timeliness of FC’s response didn’t comply with the requirements of regulations 5(1), 5(2) and 14(2) of the EIR.
