Information Commissioner's Office

Transport for London

23 March 2017, Education (Other)

The complainant has requested information held by Transport for London (TfL) on the decision to rename Crossrail. TfL identified information within the scope of the request and provided some of this to the complainant but withheld some information on the basis of section 37(1)(a). The Commissioner sought to establish if the exemption had been applied correctly and whether TfL had identified all relevant information it held. The Commissioner’s decision is that TfL failed to initially identify all information within the scope of the request but she is satisfied it has now done so. For the information withheld by TfL she considers the section 37(1)(a) exemption is engaged and she therefore requires no steps to be taken.
