Summary: The complainant requested from Cornwall Council (the council) various information regarding the redundancy/pension enhancements paid to the outgoing Chief Executives of the county and district councils in Cornwall and also the annual salaries of council staff earning £65,000 and over. The Commissioner finds that section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act) is engaged in respect of the redundancy/pension enhancements paid to the outgoing Chief Executives as disclosure of these individuals-™ personal data would be unfair. However, the Commissioner requires further the council to disclose further information about staff salaries in respect of certain senior staff.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 40 - Complaint Partly Upheld
