University of Kent
15 November 2017, Education (University)
The complainant has requested information from the University of Kent (“the University”) regarding communications in relation to an online article about reptile mortality rates. The University refused to disclose that information (“the withheld information”) citing sections 36(2)(b)(ii), 40(2) and 41 of the FOIA as a basis for non-disclosure. The Commissioner’s decision is that the University has correctly applied section 36(2)(b)(ii) to the withheld information. As she considers that this applies to all of the withheld information, she has not considered the University’s application of sections 40(2) and 41 of the FOIA to the withheld information.
FOI 36: Not upheld
