City of York Council
The complainant has requested information about access audits in respect of the York Guildhall restoration project. City of York Council (the Council) initially withheld the information requested under sections 22 (information intended for future publication) and 42 (legal professional privilege). During its internal review the Council withdrew reliance on section 22 and disclosed the information withheld but maintained that the legal advice relating to the matter was exempt under section 42 of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council correctly applied section 42 to the request. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.FOI 42: Complaint not upheld
Decision notice: 223708
