- Decision(s) EIR 12.4.e: Not upheld, EIR 12.5.e: Not upheld
The complainant requested information relating to development of land at Chipping Campden. Gloucestershire County Council (the “Council”) disclosed some information and withheld other information under the exceptions for internal communications (regulation 12(4)(e)) and commercial confidentiality (regulation 12(5)(e)). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council correctly withheld information under regulation 12(4)(e) and regulation 12(5)(e) but that it should have relied on regulation 5(3) of the EIR to withhold those parts of the requested information that were the complainant’s own personal information. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
