Office for National Statistics
29 October 2015, Central government
The complainant made a request for information to the Office for National Statistics (ONS) for information regarding a dispute about infringement of copyright. The ONS disclosed some of the requested information but withheld some information under the exemption in section 42 (legal professional privilege). The Commissioner’s decision is that the section 42 exemption was correctly applied and the public interest in maintaining that exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.
FOI 42: Not upheld
