- Decision(s) EIR 11(4): Upheld, EIR 13: Not upheld, EIR 14(2): Upheld
The Commissioner’s decision is that Hillingdon Council (the council) is entitled to withhold the requested information about a planning enforcement investigation under regulation 13(1) of the EIR. The information is other people’s personal data and disclosing it wouldn’t be lawful. However, the timeliness of the council’s refusal and internal review didn’t comply with regulations 14(2) and 11(4). The Commissioner doesn’t require further steps.
