The complainant requested details of the full qualifications, experience and duties of each member of the Department's Web Design Team by grade. The public authority withheld information about the full qualifications and experience of each member of the Web Design Team under Section 40(2) of the FOI Act on the basis that it was personal information and its disclosure would breach the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998. The ICO is satisfied that the public authority has applied the exemption correctly and has dealt with the request in accordance with the requirements of Part 1 of the FOI Act.
FOI 40: Not upheld
