Imperial College London
The complainant requested details of payments made to a particular GP practice for student placements. The Council of Imperial College relied on section 40(2) of the FOIA to withhold information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the College has not correctly applied section 40(2) of the FOIA to any part of the request. In respect of elements 1, 3 and 4 of the request, it has not demonstrated that the information would be personal data. In respect of element 2, any information the College held would be personal data and therefore the Commissioner is proactively applying section 40(5B) of the FOIA to prevent the College from confirming or denying whether it holds relevant information. The Commissioner requires the College to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose the information that it holds within the scope of elements 1, 3 and 4 of the request.FOI 40: Complaint partly upheld
