Bradford Metropolitan District Council (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50453224 (16 October 2012)
Summary: The complainant requested the contract between City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council (the Council) and a debt collection company. The Council refused to disclose this information under the exemptions provided by sections 41(1) (information provided in confidence) and 43(2) (commercial interests) of the FOIA. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the Council withheld some of the information correctly under section 41(1). However, in relation to the remainder of the information the conclusion of the Commissioner is that this is not exempt. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose to the complainant all of the information falling within the scope of the request, aside from the -˜pricing schedule-™ which the Commissioner has concluded was exempt under section 41(1).
