Understanding the Environmental Information Regulations
London, UK
This Workshop explains the meaning and scope of the EIR and to whom they apply. It examines in detail the boundary with FOI, based on decisions of the Information Commissioner and Information Tribunal and on guidance from DEFRA; including the potential role of a remoteness test in limiting the range of information covered. It analyses the “exceptions” and how to approach the public interest test.
The course equips practitioners to recognise and handle practical issues arising under the Regulations with confidence, and to avoid the pitfalls of dealing with information requests under the wrong regime.
Accredited by the Law Society with 5 hours CPD.
