Northamptonshire County Council
The complainant has asked Northampton County Council for all documents which relate to the investigations of the Adult Safeguarding Team following the death of her mother. The Council initially refused to disclose some of the information it holds in reliance on section 40(2) of the FOIA, on the grounds that the withheld information constitutes the personal data of third part individuals. During the Commissioner’s investigation the Council also confirmed its additional reliance on section 41(1)(a) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that Northampton County Council has properly applied sections 40(2) and 41(1)(a) of the FOIA to the information it is withholding.FOI 40: Complaint not upheld FOI 41(1): Complaint not upheld
