Information requested

There was a meeting on or about the 6th January 2020 that included representatives of at least West Berkshire Council, AWE, PHE and ONR to discuss (maybe among other things) the REPPIR-19 submissions and the setting of the urgent protective action zone and/or detailed emergency planning zone. May I have the agenda, minutes and any other notes from that meeting please.

Information released

We confirm that under s.1 of the FOIA, we hold some of the information you have requested.

ONR, as the regulator for REPPIR19, routinely engages with the local authorities upon which REPPIR19 places legal duties. As part of discharging these duties, local authorities engage with organisations and agencies involved in the development and delivery of the associated off-site emergency plans. We believe the meeting referenced in the request was likely a routine planning meeting organised by West Berkshire Council, held on 6 January 2020, attended by several agencies including ONR.

We can confirm that we do not hold an agenda for the meeting nor have a copy of any minutes produced. However, we did produce an internal note (known as a Contact Record) which recorded information from the meeting considered to support future regulatory activities. We are pleased to enclose a copy of the Contact Record for your reference.

Please note that information relating to individuals has been redacted from the enclosed document as it constitutes personal data. The release of this type of information could identify an individual either directly or indirectly, and as such, any personal data that could identify another individual has been withheld under the remit of exemption s.40(2) of the FOIA.
