Payment Systems Regulator
The complainant has requested information from the Payment Systems Regulator (the PSR) about the banks lobbying over push payment scams. The PSR refused to provide the requested information, relying on section 44(1)(a) of FOIA (prohibitions on disclosure) in order to do so. In particular the PSR cited the statutory prohibition on disclosure created by the Financial Services (Banking Reform) Act 2013 (FSBRA). The Commissioner’s decision is that the PSR has correctly applied section 44(1)(a) and the Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.FOI 44: Complaint not upheld
