East Suffolk Council

The complainant requested information from East Suffolk Council (“the Council”) regarding how the Council had become aware of an alleged planning breach. The Council disclosed some information in response to the request but has withheld the remainder of the information held citing regulation 5(3) (personal data of which the applicant is the data subject), regulation 13 (personal data), regulation 12(5)(d) (confidentiality of proceedings) and regulation 12(5)(f) (interests of the information provider) of the EIR as its bases for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to withhold all of the withheld information under regulation 12(5)(f) of the EIR (interests of the information provider). He has therefore not gone on to consider the other bases for withholding the information cited by the Council. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps.

EIR 12(5)(f): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 254526
