The appeal
Regulation 18 provides that the enforcement and appeals provisions of FOIA (namely Part IV, including Schedule 3, of FOIA and Part V of FOIA) apply for the purposes of the EIRs, subject to certain modifications.
For the reasons we have given in paragraph 45, this was therefore an appeal against the Decision Notice pursuant to the EIRs, in accordance with section 57 as applied by regulation 18.
