Estyn

The complainant has requested Estyn to disclose information relating to the inspection of a specified school. Estyn refused to disclose the requested information, citing section 33(1)(b) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that Estyn is entitled to rely on section 33(1)(b) of FOIA for part of the requested information in this case. However, during the Commissioner’s investigation it transpired that the remaining requested information was not held by Estyn at the time of the request. Therefore the Commissioner’s decision is that Estyn has breached the requirements of section 1(1)(a) of FOIA by not stating this in its initial response. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.

FOI 33: Complaint partly upheld

Decision notice: 189703
