The complainant has requested copies of emails sent to Duxford Parish Council’s former Chairman. The Council has withheld these emails in reliance on section 40(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has appropriately applied the exemption provided by section 40(2) and it is therefore entitled to withhold the requested information. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take no further action in this matter.
FOI 40: Not upheld
