30 March 2015, Education (University)
The complainant requested from Plymouth University (“the University”) the conclusions of a report into allegations connected to the former Chairman of its Board of Governors. The University withheld the information under sections 36(2)(b)(ii) and (c), 40(2), 41 and 42. The Commissioner’s decision is that the University correctly withheld the requested information under section 40(2). He therefore does not require the University to take any further steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.
