Kirklees Metropolitan Council
13 December 2016, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested information from Kirklees Metropolitan Council about the number of staff subject to disciplinary action over six years. The Council refused to comply with the request under section 12(1) of the Freedom of Information Act. The complainant subsequently contested the Council’s refusal. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied the exclusion provided by section 12(1), and has also complied with the requirement of section 16(1) to provide advice and assistance. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
