Cambridgeshire County Council

The complainant has requested information about the proposed Cambridge to Cambourne public transport route.  The Council disclosed some information falling within the scope of the request, but refused to disclose all the information held citing regulations 13 – third party personal data; 12(4)d – material in the course of completion; and 12(5)f -interests of the person providing the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that Cambridgeshire County Council has failed to demonstrate that regulation 12(4)d is engaged.  She finds that regulation 13 is engaged as there is no legitimate interest served in disclosure of the personal data, and that regulation 12(5)f is engaged with the public interest in maintaining the exception outweighing the public interest in disclosure.  The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Disclose the withheld information, as redacted by the Council in its submission to the Commissioner.

EIR 12(4)(d): Complaint upheld EIR 13: Complaint not upheld EIR 12(5)(f): Complaint not upheld
