Department for Education (Decision Notice) [2014] UKICO FS50510560 (13 February 2014)
Summary: The complainant has requested information about two free schools based in Chester. The Department for Education (DfE) refused to provide the requested information under section 36(2)(b)(ii), 36(2)(c), 40(2) and 43(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). The Commissioner-™s decision is that the DfE has correctly applied section 40(2) FOIA but incorrectly applied section 36(2)(b)(ii), section 36(2)(c) and section 43(2) FOIA. The Commissioner requires the public authority to now disclose the withheld information but should redact the information to which section 40(2) FOIA applies. That is the personal details of proposers and governors.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 36 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 43 - Complaint Upheld
