27 October 2016, Central government (Parish council)
The complainant has requested addresses for a gambling operator obtained by the Gambling Commission as part of its licencing application process. The Gambling Commission refused to provide this on the basis of section 31(1)(g) in conjunction with 31(2)(d). The Commissioner’s decision is that the exemption is engaged and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. She requires no steps to be taken. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Tribunal.
FOI 31: Not upheld
