Lancashire County Council
20 November 2017, Local government (County council)
The complainant has requested information from trading standards section of Lancashire County Council about a complaint made by him relating to a specific business enterprise. The Council has applied section 44(1) of the Act , on grounds that section 237 of the Enterprise Act 2002 provides a statutory prohibition on disclosing the information it holds to him; and section 30(1) (investigations and proceedings conducted by public authorities). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied section 44(1)(a) to the information and has not therefore gone on to consider section 30(1).
FOI 44: Not upheld
