East Riding of Yorkshire Council

The complainant has requested a copy of a contract between East Riding of Yorkshire Council and Arvato Government Services (ERYC) Ltd.  East Riding of Yorkshire Council disclosed some information and withheld other information under the exemptions for personal data (section 40(2)) and commercial interests (section 43(2)). The Commissioner’s decision is that East Riding of Yorkshire Council failed to comply with the duty to confirm or deny within the statutory time limit therefore breaching section 1(1)(a) and section 10(1) and has failed to demonstrate that section 43(2) of the FOIA is engaged, thus also breaching section 1(1)(b). The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose Schedule 15 of the Guarantee and Schedule 28 of the Joint Venture Agreement.
