Dear ###

We write further to your request which was received on 3 October 2019 and which states:

"Please provide a copy of the maintenance and repair schedule indicating which drains and culverts on the highways have been cleared (kept free of silt, mud, stones, weeds, leaves and debris) and when, within Laxey village for the period of 2018 and 2019."

The information you have requested is attached as Appendix 1. While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance some personal data has been redacted from Appendix 1 because it is exempt under section 25 of the Act (absolutely exempt personal information). These redactions do not affect the content of the information you requested. The reasons why that exemption applies are that: • The Department is satisfied that the information amounts to personal data of which you are not the data subject; and • The Department is satisfied that disclosure of the information would contravene one of the data protection principles as set out at Article 5 of the General Data Protection Regulation as it applies in the Isle of Man pursuant to the Data Protection (Application of GDPR) Order 2018, namely that the Department can only disclose the information where it would be fair, lawful and meet one of the conditions for lawful processing in Article 6 and in this case, none of those conditions have been met. Please quote the reference number 988105 in any future communications.
