Health and Safety Executive

The complainant has requested email correspondence between the dutyholder of the Vision Point development and the Building Safety Regulator (BSR). The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) relied on regulation 12(5)(d) (confidentiality of proceedings) and regulation 13 of the EIR (third party personal information) to withhold the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that HSE has correctly applied regulation 12(5)(d) to all the withheld information and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining the exception. The Commissioner does not require further steps to be taken.
