15 February 2016, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested two reports produced by the District Valuer Service (DVS) for the London Borough of Southwark (the Council) in relation to the proposed development of the Heygate Estate. The Council provided the complainant with the reports prepared by the DVS subject to redactions made under the ‘confidentiality of commercial or industrial information’ (regulation 12(5)(e)) exception in the EIR. The complainant has asked the Commissioner to consider whether the Council was entitled to withhold this information. The Commissioner has decided that the withheld information engages regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR and that in all the circumstances the public interest in disclosure is outweighed by the public interest in maintaining the exception. He does not therefore require the Council to take any steps.
EIR 12(5)(e): Not upheld
