Bristol City Council

The complainant requested from Bristol City Council (‘the council’), information relating to its new Trans Inclusion and Gender Identity Policy. The council disclosed some information, however, it said that some feedback was not held, and it withheld other feedback on the basis that section 40(2) of FOIA applied (personal data of third parties). The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was correct to apply section 40(2) to withhold the feedback. He has also decided that, on a balance of probabilities, it was correct to state that other information was not held. The Commissioner does not require further steps.

FOI 1(1)(b): Complaint not upheld FOI 40(2): Complaint not upheld
