Queens University Belfast (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50373465 (05 October 2011)
Summary: The public authority organises an annual arts event and puts out to tender services required to facilitate that event. The complainant requested a copy of the full tender submissions for two of the tenders. The public authority released some generic information but withheld information unique to the two tenders, relying on section 43 (commercial interests) to do so. The Commissioner decided that the exemption was engaged and that the public interest test favoured maintaining the exemption.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 43 - Complaint Not upheld
