Cardiff Council
22 June 2017, Local government (City council)
The complainant requested the number of tickets issued to two specific vehicle registration numbers. Cardiff Council (‘the Council’) withheld the information under section 40(2) of the FOIA. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation, the Council disclosed information relating to one of the vehicles. The Commissioner considers that the Council incorrectly applied section 40(2) to the request. The Commissioner has decided that under section 40(5)(b)(i) of the FOIA, the Council is not obliged to confirm or deny that it holds the requested information as to do so would release the personal data of a third person.
FOI 40: Not upheld
