University of Salford
The complainant has requested the complete university records for the Manchester Arena attacker, including any communications with third parties. The University withheld the majority of the information under section 32(2) as it was held only by virtue of it being part of an inquiry and withheld the remaining information under section 36(2)(c). The Commissioner’s decision is that the University has correctly withheld the information in documents 1 – 37 on the basis of section 32(2). The information in documents 38 – 50 does engage the section 36(2)(c) exemption but the public interest favours disclosure. The Commissioner requires the public authority disclose the information in documents 38 – 50 subject to any redactions under section 40(2) for personal data.FOI 32: Complaint not upheld FOI 36: Complaint upheld
