- Decision(s) EIR 11.4: Upheld, EIR 12.4.a: Not upheld, EIR 14: Upheld
The complainant has requested information about a sewer capacity assessment associated (SCA) with a proposed development. Severn Trent Water (STW) has now disclosed the relevant information it holds – the SCA - but the complainant considers STW holds more information.The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, STW doesn’t hold any further information and that regulation 12(4)(a) of the EIR is engaged. The Commissioner has also decided that STW’s initial refusal of the request and its handling of the complainant’s request for an internal review didn’t comply with the requirements of regulations 14 and 11(4) of the EIR. It’s not necessary for STW to take any corrective steps.
