Cranfield University (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50346729 (16 June 2011)
Summary: The complainant made two requests for information relating to the possible restructuring and reorganising of certain departments at the University; together with information relating to discussions about and proposals for any associated redundancies. The University withheld this information under sections 36, 40 and 43. The Commissioner decided that the University had correctly relied upon section 36. In addition to this it had correctly relied upon section 40 to withhold some information. However, he has also decided that sections 40 and 43 were not engaged in relation to some of the information. Therefore some of the withheld information should be disclosed. The University also failed to meet the requirements of sections 10 and 17. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Information Tribunal.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 36 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Partly Upheld
