The complainant requested information about Winstanley Hall and related development proposals. Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council disclosed some information but withheld further information under regulations 12(4)(d), 12(4)(e), 12(5)(e) and 12(5)(f) of the EIR. The Commissioner found that the council had failed to demonstrate that regulations 12(4)(d), 12(5)(e) or 12(5)(f) were engaged. Although some information appeared capable of falling within regulation 12(4)(e), the council failed to identify adequately the information to which the exception applied and failed to demonstrate that the public interest favoured maintaining the exception. The Commissioner also found that the council breached regulation 14(5)(a) of the EIR because it did not adequately explain its reliance on the exceptions. The Commissioner requires the council to disclose the withheld information, subject to the redaction of any personal data in accordance with regulation 13 of the EIR.
