Natural Resources Wales

The complainant requested various pieces of information relating to felling licences. Natural Resources Wales (‘NRW’) initially applied regulation 12(4)(b) to the request as it considered it to be manifestly unreasonable due to the time it would take it comply with it.  During the Commissioner’s investigation NRW disclosed the information requested and stated other information was not held. The Commissioner’s decision is that NRW has complied with regulation 5(1) as it does not hold any further recorded information relevant to the request. However, the Commissioner finds that NRW breached regulation 5(2) of the EIR in failing to provide the requested information within the required timescale. The Commissioner also finds that NRW breached regulation 14 of the EIR by failing to issue a refusal notice within the statutory time limit. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.

EIR 5(1): Complaint not upheld EIR 5(2): Complaint upheld EIR 14: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: fer0833017
