26 May 2015, Local government (Borough council)
The complainant requested copies of correspondence between Rochdale Borough Council (the Council) and an allotment society. The Council refused to provide the requested information citing sections 40 (personal information) and 41 (information provided in confidence) of FOIA. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation, some information was disclosed to the complainant. The Commissioner has investigated the Council’s application of section 40. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council correctly relied on section 40(2) of the FOIA to refuse the request. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps.
FOI 40: Not upheld
