Bank of England
31 January 2017, Central government
The complainant requested information about the ethnicity and remuneration of senior officials at the Bank of England (the Bank). The Bank disclosed the information regarding remuneration but refused to disclose the information about ethnicity relying on section 40(2) – personal information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the bank is correct to rely on section 40(2) to refuse the request at point 2 relating to ethnicity. She does not require the public authority to take any steps.
FOI 40: Not upheld
