Leeds City Council

The complainant requested information from Leeds City Council (“the Council”) about records of a named person’s time as a resident at Shadwell Children’s Centre. The Council refused to confirm or deny whether it held the requested information, citing the personal information exemption under section 40(5B)(a)(i) of FOIA as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to rely on the personal information exemption under section 40(5B)(a)(i) of FOIA as a basis for refusing to confirm or deny whether the information is held. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps.

FOI 40(5B)(a)(i): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 167739
