Sandwell Metropolitan Council
3 July 2017, Local government (District council)
The complainant submitted a request to Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council (the Council) for copies of correspondence in relation to the allocation of a particular council house. The Council sought to withhold this information on the basis of section 30(1)(b) (investigations) of FOIA. The Commissioner is satisfied that the requested information falls within the scope of the exemption and furthermore that the public interest favours maintaining the exemption.
FOI 30: Not upheld
