Sutton London Borough Council (Decision Notice) [2013] UKICO FS50446591 (17 January 2013)
Summary: The complainant requested correspondence between council officers and an organisation representing it and other councils regarding its contract with a charity which provides career advice in the area. The council-™s decision was that the information was exempt under section 42 of the Act (legal professional privilege). During the Commissioner's investigation the council also applied section 36(2)(b)(ii) and 36(2)(c) to the information. The Commissioner's decision is that the council was correct to apply section 36(2)(b)(ii). He has therefore not considered the application of the other exemptions by the council further. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
