Worcestershire County Council (Decision Notice) [2014] UKICO FER0523779 (22 April 2014)
Summary: The complainant has requested information from Worcestershire County Council (the Council) about compensation claims that had been made against it or its insurance company for asbestos-related diseases in the last five years. The Council confirmed the number of claims that had been received but refused to provide details as to how many of these claims had been settled, and if so, how much had been paid out in compensation on the basis of regulation 13(1) of the EIR (the personal data exception). The Commissioner is satisfied that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of this exception.
