Summary: The complainant asked the public authority to provide him with -all reviews, quarterly or annually, received from UK Athletics since the UK-s performance update 2006/2007 Quarter Two-. The information was identified by the public authority as being two reports it had received from UK Athletics and its own comments on those reports. The Commissioner decided that the two reports are within the scope of the request but the public authority-s comments on them are not. The public authority released some of the requested information but relied on sections 27, 28, 36, 41 and 43 to exempt the remainder. The Commissioner found that the exemption provided by section 41 (information provided in confidence) was properly applied by the public authority to all of the withheld information; he did not therefore go on to consider the alternative exemptions cited by the public authority. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2010/0162 dismissed.
