Department for Information Development
The complainant submitted a request to the Department for International Development (DFID) seeking a copy of an internal investigation report into allegations made against DAPP Malawi. DFID sought to withhold the report on the basis of the following sections of FOIA: 31(1)(a) and (b) (law enforcement); 40(2) (personal data); section 41(1) (information provided in confidence); and 43(2) (commercial interests) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that part of the report is exempt from disclosure on the basis of sections 31(1)(a) and (b) of FOIA and that in all the circumstances of the request the public interest favours maintaining these exemptions. However, the Commissioner has concluded that the remaining parts of the report are not exempt from disclosure on the basis of the exemptions cited by DFID. She has therefore concluded that these parts of the report should be disclosed.FOI 31: Complaint partly upheld FOI 43: Complaint upheld
