- Decision(s) EIR 13: Not upheld, EIR 5.1: Upheld, EIR 5.2: Upheld, EIR 5.3: Not upheld
The complainant requested information relating to their planning complaint. Guildford Borough Council (the “Council”) disclosed information but the complainant considers that it failed to provide all
information held within the scope of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council failed to provide all the requested information in time and breached regulation 5(1) and regulation 5(2); that it correctly withheld third party personal information under regulation 13 and, wrongly handled parts of the request which identify the complainant’s own personal information under the EIR and that regulation 5(3) applies to this information. The Commissioner requires the Council to disclose the information identified in paragraph 26.
