Financial Conduct Authority
The complainant requested a copy of the notes of an interview with an outgoing Chief Executive. The Financial Conduct Authority initially withheld the requested information, citing sections 40(2) and 44 of the FOIA, before latterly noting that some of the information was already in the public domain. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FCA failed to issue, within 20 working days, a refusal notice specifying all the exemptions on which it eventually came to rely. She therefore finds that the FCA breached section 17 of the FOIA in responding to the request. The Commissioner does not require further steps.FOI 17: Complaint upheld
