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.
Also some the information presented to you covers an exception under regulation 10(4)(d) (material in the course of completion). As this data details matters out with your specific request, (eg. a different case, we have deemed this data out of scope of this request and it has been withheld.
