North Yorkshire County Council
The complainant has requested proof held by the council that her late mother informed the council that it should not provide her with information on her care. The council did not respond to the request on the basis it had responded to a similar request previously. She therefore complained that the council did not respond to her request for information. She also complained that the council was withholding information on the basis that section 41 of the Act applies (information held under a duty of confidence). The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was correct to apply section 41 to withhold the information from disclosure. She has also decided that the council was correct to apply section 14(2) and refuse to respond to the request as required by section 1(1). The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.FOI 14(2): Complaint not upheld FOI 41: Complaint not upheld
