Herefordshire Council
The complainant requested from Herefordshire Council (the Council) information relating to limited companies that pay business rates. The Council withheld the information and cited section 31(1)(a) (law enforcement) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was entitled to withhold the information requested under section 31(1)(a) of FOIA. Also, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure. Therefore, the Commissioner does not require the Council to take any steps as a result of this decision.FOI 31(1)(a): Complaint not upheld
Decision notice: 179645
