21 October 2015, Central government
The complainant has requested all advice received by the Shareholder Executive between 1 July 2013 and 15 October 2013 regarding the choice of a share price for the Royal Mail share offer. The Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) initially applied Section 36(2)(b) of FOIA to withhold all the requested information. In subsequent correspondence with the Commissioner the Department also applied Section 43(2) to all of the withheld information and Section 41 to parts of the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Department for Business Innovation and Skills was entitled to withhold all of the information held within scope of the request on the basis of Section 36(2)(b) of FOIA. He therefore does not require it to take any further steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.
FOI 36: Not upheld
