Response

Please find attached a copy of most of the information you requested in PDF format.

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance we are unable to provide some of the information you have requested because an exception under regulation Reg 11(2) (Personal Data relating to a third party) of the EIRs applies to that information. The reasons why that exception applies are explained below.

Reasons for not providing information

An exception under regulation Reg 11(2) (Personal Data relating to a third party) of the EIRs applies to some of the information you have requested.

An exception under regulation 11(2) of the EIRs (personal information) applies to some of the information requested because it is personal data of a third party and disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation and in section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018. This exception is not subject to the ‘public interest test’, so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exception.
