The complainant has requested information relating to evidence that a named person had left their employment with the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC). The IPCC provided the date of the person’s last day of employment and a screenshot of the person’s employment record but withheld further evidence, citing the exemption under section 40(2) of the FOIA (third party personal data) as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the IPCC has correctly applied this exemption. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken as a result of this decision notice.
FOI 40: Not upheld
