Response
I enclose a copy of most of the information you requested.
An exception under regulation 11(2) of the EIRs (personal information) applies to all of the information requested because it is personal data of a third party and disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation and in section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018. This exception is not subject to the 'public interest test', so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exception.
An exception under regulation 10(5)(d) of the EIRs applies to some of the information you have requested. This relates to material provided by officials where disclosure would harm the confidentiality of proceedings.
