30 November 2015, Local government (City council)
The complainant requested the transcript of an exit interview carried out with a named former employee of Portsmouth City Council (the Council). The Council refused this request under the exemption provided by section 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council cited section 40(2) correctly and so it was not obliged to disclose the requested information.
FOI 40: Not upheld
