Legal Ombudsman
The complainant has requested information specific to the ethnic and religious background of the Chief Executive, Chief Ombudsman and any other Legal Ombudsman staff involved in the decision of their complaint. The Commissioner’s decision is that the requested information constitutes personal data and that its release would clearly contravene the data protection principles. She therefore considers the Legal Ombudsman (“the Ombudsman”) is entitled to rely on section 40(2) to withhold the information. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further steps.FOI 40(2): Complaint not upheld
