Department for Education
The complainant has requested information associated with the Asbestos Management Assurance Process. Department for Education (DfE/the department) has released the majority of the information requested and withheld the remainder under regulation 12(5)(f) of the EIR (interests of the person who provided the information). DfE considers that the public interest favours maintaining this exception. It considers that some of the withheld information is also excepted from release under regulation 12(3)(personal data). The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: The information DfE is withholding is excepted from disclosure under regulation 12(5)(f) and the public interest favours maintaining this exception. DfE breached regulation 5(2) and regulation 14(2) as it did not make some of the information available or refuse to disclose the remaining information within 20 working days after the date of receipt of the request. The Commissioner does not require DfE to take any remedial steps.EIR 5: Complaint upheld EIR 14: Complaint upheld EIR 12(5)(f): Complaint not upheld
