Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service

The complainant requested a copy of a report about cladding used for a specified building construction. Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (‘GMFRS’) responded with some details it held about the external wall build up but did not provide a report. At the internal review stage, GMFRS said that no further information was held other than had already been provided. The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, GMRFS does not hold the requested report. However, she considers that the request should have been considered under the Environmental Information Regulations. By failing to carry out its internal review within the statutory 40 working days’ limit, GMFRS breached regulation 11(4) of the EIR. The Commissioner does not require GMFRS to take any steps as a result of this notice.

EIR 5(1): Complaint not upheld EIR 11(4): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: fs50809516
