Insolvency Service
The complainant submitted a request to the Insolvency Service seeking information about its process for considering applications for Debt Relief Orders (DRO). The complainant also sought information about a specific DRO awarded to a named third party. The Insolvency Service provided the complainant with some information about the process of DROs. It sought to withhold the information specific to named third party’s application on the basis of section 40(2) (personal data) of FOIA. The Commissioner decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, the Insolvency Service does not hold any further information falling within the scope of the complainant’s request about the process of DROs beyond that previously provided to him. The Commissioner has also concluded that the Insolvency Service is entitled to rely on section 40(2) to withhold information specific to named third party’s application.FOI 1: Complaint partly upheld FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
