Cumberland Council
The complainant requested various information (including a financial report) in respect of the planned public swimming pool based at the Wave Centre in Maryport. Cumbria County Council (‘the Council’) initially refused to provide a copy of the report citing section 44(1) (Prohibitions on disclosure). Following the Commissioner’s investigation, the Council withdrew its reliance on section 44(1) in favour of section 43(2) (Commercial interests) of FOIA. It also provided a copy of the report to the complainant outside of the provisions of the FOIA having received confirmation from the author of the report that a restricted disclosure with conditions was acceptable to it.FOI 43(2): Complaint not upheld
