Barlborough Parish Council
9 September 2014, Local government (Parish council)
The complainant has requested the legal advice obtained by the Parish Council in respect of an employment tribunal case, together with any records showing whether the Parish Council had accepted that advice. The Parish Council refused to provide the information under section 42 which provides an exemption in respect of information which could attract legal professional privilege. The Commissioner’s decision is that Barlborough Parish Council is entitled to rely on section 42 to refuse the requested information. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further action in this matter.
FOI 42: Not upheld
