Written question asked by Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Liberal Democrat), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord Rooker (Labour) on Monday, 18 December 2006.

Freedom of Information: Environmental Information Regulations

Question
asked Her Majesty's Government:Further to the Written Answer by Lord Rooker on 27 November (WA 26), where they keep details relating to internal reviews under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (SI 2004/3391) and the nature and subject matter of the information requested; and how such data are made available to the public.
Answer

Details relating to internal reviews under the Environmental Information Regulations are held separately by each individual government department. The Government do not hold information centrally on the nature and subject matter of the information requested and to collate such information would result in disproportionate costs. I refer the noble Baroness to the Answer I gave on 5 December, which sets out how data relating to internal reviews under the Freedom of Information Act and the Environmental Information Regulations are made available to the public.
