City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council
The complainant requested a copy of the latest version of the telephone directory provided to Elected Members. The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council (the Council) initially stated that it did not hold the information requested. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation the Council located the document in question and disclosed a redacted copy of it, subject to some information being redacted under section 40(2) (personal information). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to rely on section 40(2) of the FOIA to withhold some of the requested information. However, the Commissioner finds that the Council breached section 10 of the FOIA in failing to provide the disclosable information within the statutory timescale. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
