We will continue to add any future Court Orders received once they have been enforced".

Dear Ms Smith,
Further to your request of 25^th May and our subsequent acknowledgement of
26^th May, I can confirm that whilst the information you have requested is
held by the Canal & River Trust it is exempt from disclosure as it is
reasonably accessible by an alternative means in accordance with Section
21(2)(b) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. As a non-party to the
proceedings the information you have requested is available upon written
request to the relevant court. Permission from the court for the
disclosure should not be required as these were public hearings which were
filed at court after October 2006 and neither party, to our knowledge, has
filed for a restriction order of the judgements and orders.
Alternatively, some of the information you have requested may already be
in the public domain. For example, the Court of Appeal judgement is
available at the following link

If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the
right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be
submitted within two months of the date of this email and should be sent
by email to [2][email address] or by post to
Information Officer, Legal Department, Canal & River Trust, First Floor
North, Station House, 500 Elder Gate, Milton Keynes, MK9 1BB. Please
remember to quote the reference number above in any future communications.
You are also able to contact the Information Commissioner by telephoning
0303 123 1113 although please note they would usually expect you to have
gone through our internal review procedure before contacting them.
Kind regards,
Frazer Halcrow
