UK Anti-Doping
8 March 2016, Education (Other)
The complainant submitted a request to UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) for communications sent and received by its Chief Executive relating to the story published in The Sunday Times on 2 August 2015 concerning allegations of doping in athletics. UKAD provided the complainant with some of the information falling within the scope of his request but withheld the remainder on the basis of sections 36(2)(b)(i) and (ii) (effective conduct of public affairs) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that both exemptions are engaged and the public interest favours withholding the information.
FOI 36: Not upheld
