The Commissioner has investigated its application of sections 36(2)(c) and 40(2) of FOIA to the information withheld by virtue of those exemptions. The Commissioner’s decision is that the JAC was entitled to withhold the information on the basis of sections 36(2)(c) and 40(2) of FOIA. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.FOI 36: Complaint not upheld FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
