University of Bedfordshire

The complainant has requested to know if the university uses a private company to take photographs at graduation ceremonies, if it does when the current contract is due to expire and when the university is likely to re-tender. The university confirmed that it does use a private company for these services but refused to confirm when the current contract is due to expire and when the university is likely to re-tender, citing section 43 and 22 of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that sections 43 and 22 of the FOIA do not apply in this case. The Commissioner therefore requires the university to disclose the remaining withheld information to the complainant. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Tribunal.

FOI 43: Complaint upheld FOI 22: Complaint upheld
