Hammersmith and Fulham London Borough Council (Decision Notice) [2014] UKICO FER0509265 (31 March 2014)
Summary: The complainant requested information, including a financial model, relating to the Earl-™s Court Area regeneration. London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (the Council) considered the request under the FOIA and refused to disclose the model citing a number of exemptions. During the course of the Commissioner-™s investigation, the Council cited EIR exceptions in the alternative, namely Regulations 12(5)(b) (the course of justice), 12(5)(e) (confidentiality of commercial or industrial information) and 12(5)(f) (interests of the person who provided the information). The Commissioner has investigated and his decision is that the exception for commercial confidentiality is engaged and that the public interest favours withholding the information. He requires no steps to be taken.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: EIR 12.5.e - Complaint Not upheld
