19 November 2007, Local government (County council)
The complainants asked the council for the information it had compiled on options for saving £10 million from its adult services budget. The council withheld the requested information under s36 (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs). The Commissioner decided that information which directly related to savings options was correctly exempted. He decided that part of the information was not exempt under s36 and should be released.
FOI 36: Partly upheld
