Barnet London Borough Council (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50448565 (09 October 2012)
Summary: The complainant has requested a copy of the One Barnet programme risk register. London Borough of Barnet (the -council-) provided a redacted version of the requested document and withheld the remaining information under the commercial interests and personal data exemptions. The Commissioner-s decision is that the council has wrongly defined the scope of the request, that it has correctly withheld the personal information of third parties and that it has failed to demonstrate that the exemption for commercial interests is engaged. The Commissioner requires the public authority to provide the complainant with the -issues- elements of the risk register or issue a refusal notice; and to disclose the information from the risk register that it withheld under section 43(2) of the FOIA.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 43 - Complaint Upheld
