University of Leeds
The complainant requested information from the University of Leeds (“the university”) about the candidates invited to interview for a post as Lecturer in Commercial Law. The university withheld the majority of the information under section 40(2) of the FOIA – third party personal data. The Commissioner’s decision is that the withheld information is the personal data of the candidates and it would not be lawful to disclose it. The university therefore correctly withheld the information under section 40(2). The Commissioner does not require the university to take any steps.FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
