Summary: The complainant requested information relating to a television programme called Educating Essex which was filmed at Passmores Academy. The Commissioner-™s decision is that Passmores Academy was entitled to rely on section 43(2) of the FOIA (commercial interests) to withhold the relevant information within the scope of parts one, two and six of the complainant-™s request. He considers that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information. The Information Commissioner (Commissioner) also considers that Passmores Academy was entitled to withhold the personal contact telephone numbers of the twOfour production team and two Channel 4 employees under section 40(2) with section 40(3)(a)(i) of the FOIA. By failing to confirm that it held some information within the scope of part one of the complainant-™s request Passmores Academy breached section 1(1)(a) of the FOIA. In relation to parts one, three, four and five of the request the Commissioner is satisfied that, on the balance of probabilities, Passmores Academy does not hold any further information within the scope of the request. The Information Commissioner does not require Passmores Academy to take any steps as a result of this decision.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 43 - Complaint Not upheld
