Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Decision Notice) [2006] UKICO FS50070198 (08 May 2006)
Summary: The complainant's request for complete and unabridged information on the accuracy of domestic and non-domestic meters was refused under section 44 of the Act (prohibitions on disclosure). The public authority argued that section 105 of the Utilities Act 2000 provided a statutory bar on disclosing the information, and after a careful review of the relevant statutes and submissions received from both parties the Commissioner has agreed with Ofgem that the statutory prohibition cited was applicable. The information is therefore exempt under section 44.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 44 - Complaint Not upheld
