Summary: The complainant made a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the -Act-) to Transport for London (-TfL-) for its internal guidance relating to how it considers appeal representations made against a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN). TfL confirmed that it held the requested information but stated that it was exempt from disclosure under section 31(1)(g) in conjunction with section 31(2)(c) of the Act. The Commissioner considers that this exemption is engaged and that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2009/0061 allowed.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 31 - Complaint Not upheld
