Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council
26 January 2017, Local government (Borough council)
The complainant made a freedom of information request to Wigan Metropolitan Council (“the Council”) for a copy of a food hygiene inspection report. The Council refused the request under the section 30(1)(b) (investigations) exemption. The Commissioner’s decision is that the section 31(1)(b) was correctly engaged and the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.
FOI 30: Not upheld
