Hastings Borough Council
The complainant has requested to know the total severance payments made to two named individuals. Hastings borough Council (the council) initially refused the request under section 40(2) of the FOIA – third party personal data. During the Commissioner’s investigations it amended its response to refuse the request under section 40(5)(b)(i) of the FOIA – to neither confirm nor deny whether any severance payments were made. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40(5)(b)(i) of the FOIA is engaged to this request. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
