You asked

Can you please provide a copy of the Equalities Impact Assessment for Stage 2 of the changes made at Archway.

We answered

Our Ref:         FOI-1763-1718

Thank you for your request received on 29 September 2017 asking for information a copy of the Archway Stage 2 Equalities Impact Assessment.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and TfL’s information access policy.

We do not hold the information you have requested. The attached Equality Impact Assessment (EqIA) is the final one carried out for the Archway proposals as a whole. We did not do a separate EqIA to specifically assess the changes to bus services consulted on in 2016. However, as with all proposals that involve changes to bus services, the potential effect on bus passengers (e.g. the impact on journey times and on ease of interchange) was assessed during the process of developing our plans.

Please note that in accordance with TfL’s obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA) some personal data has been removed, as required by section 40(2) of the FOI Act. This is because disclosure of this personal data would be a breach of the DPA, specifically the first principle of the DPA which requires all processing of personal data to be fair and lawful. It would not be fair to disclose this personal information when the individuals have no expectation it would be disclosed and TfL has not satisfied one of the conditions of Schedule 2 of the Data Protection Act which would make the processing ‘fair’.

This exemption to the right of access to information is an absolute exemption and not subject to an assessment of whether the public interest favours use of the exemption.

Please accept our apologies that we are unable to assist you further on this occasion.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
