Gambling Commission

The complainant has requested information relating to the decision to grant BetIndex Limited, trading as Football Index, as gambling license. The Gambling Commission disclosed information and withheld the rest under section 31(2)(c) and (d), by virtue of 31(1)(g) (law enforcement) and section 40(2) (personal information). The Commissioner’s decision is that: On the balance of probabilities, the GC does not hold any further information relevant to the request. The withheld information engages section 31(2)(c) and (d), by virtue of 31(1)(g) and the public interest lies in maintaining the exemption, except for two documents. The withheld information engages section 40(2), and to disclose this information would be unlawful, except in relation to one data subject. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Disclose the two documents: UKAS testing document and accompanying summary report. The GC should redact all personal data from these documents. Disclose the personal data identified in the confidential annex.
