Summary: The complainant has requested transcripts of interviews conducted by the Environment Agency (-EA-) with the Deputy Chief Executive of Heart of England NHS Trust (-the Trust-) and a senior manager about waste management at the Trust. The complainant also asked for a letter sent by the EA to the Trust in February 2007. The Environment Agency withheld some information under regulations 12(5)(b) and 12(5)(f). The Commissioner considered some information to be the personal data of third parties and therefore considered regulation 13(1). In addition to this the EA identified some information as being the personal data of the applicant and applied regulation 5(3). The EA has considered this latter information separately under section 7 of the Data Protection Act 1998. The Commissioner-s decision is that the EA has correctly applied regulation 12(5)(b) as a basis for withholding the requested information. He has therefore not gone on to consider the application of the other exceptions. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2012/0172 dismissed.
