Cornwall County Council
The complainant requested information from Cornwall County Council (“the Council”) about a code of conduct enquiry following a complaint about two Parish Councillors. The Council confirmed they held some of the information but would not disclose the information held stating it was exempt under section 41 (information provided in confidence), section 40 (personal information) and section 31 (prevention or detection of a crime) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was entitled to rely on section 41 of FOIA to withhold the information. As section 41 is engaged the Commissioner has not found it necessary to go on to consider section 40 or section 31 in this case. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps in relation to this decision notice.
FOI 41:
Complaint not upheld
Decision notice:
