Reigate and Banstead Borough Council

The complainant requested various information from Reigate and Banstead Borough Council (‘the Council’) in relation to Project Baseball and its crematorium proposal. The Council refused to disclose two documents falling within the scope of the request citing regulation 12(5)(e) (confidentiality of commercial information) and regulation 12(5)(c) (intellectual property rights), of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (‘the EIR’). The Commissioner’s decision is that Reigate and Banstead Borough Council were entitled to rely on regulation 12(5)(e) of the EIR to refuse to disclose the information contained within both documents.

EIR 12(5)(e): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 144133
