That is a document which was released by bishops in England, Wales and Scotland. It actually made it on the news about two-three years ago with the infamous headline “Catholic Church no longer swears by truth of the Bible.”
That document was issued by a group of local Bishops and not by the Pope or the body of Bishops led by him; thus, it can only have the teaching authority of the fallible Ordinary Magisterium, not of the infallible Sacred Magisterium.
I don’t know if the Vatican responded to the document, yet there is a critical review of it on this website.
