Department for Business and Trade

The complainant has requested information regarding the Information Commissioner decision notice Reference: FS50066313. The Department for Business and Trade (the DBT) refused the request, citing section 42(1) (Legal Professional Privilege) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the DBT were entitled to rely on section 42(1) of FOIA and the balance of the public interest favours maintaining that exemption. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.

FOI 42(1): Complaint not upheld
