Sedlescombe Parish Council
The complainant requested information from Sedlescombe Parish Council (the Parish Council) relating to a decision about judicial review of a planning decision. The Parish Council disclosed some information but refused to provide the remainder, citing sections 41(information provided in confidence) and 42 (legal professional privilege) of the FOIA. The Commissioner has investigated the Parish Council’s application of section 42 of the FOIA to the information withheld by virtue of that exemption. The Commissioner has concluded that the Parish Council was entitled to rely on the exemption at section 42(1) of the FOIA to withhold the information. She requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.FOI 42: Complaint not upheld
