Welsh Government (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50318915 (16 June 2011)
Summary: The complainant requested copies of correspondence to, from or on behalf an Assembly Member concerning Powys Fadog and Assembly negotiations relating to the River Lodge Hotel, Llangollen. The Welsh Assembly Government (-Welsh Government-) disclosed some information but withheld other information under sections 31(2)(b), 40(2) and 43(2). During the Commissioner-s investigation the Welsh Government disclosed additional information but maintained its reliance on section 40(2) in relation to some information. The Commissioner has investigated and concluded that the Welsh Government correctly applied Section 40(2) to the remaining withheld information. The Commissioner identified a number of procedural shortcomings in the way the Welsh Government handled the complainant-s request but requires no steps to be taken.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld
