British Business Bank
The complainant requested information relating to emergency COVID loan schemes. British Business Bank (BBB/the Bank) provided some information and denied holding some. It refused to provide the remainder, citing sections 29 (prejudice to the national economy), 31 (law enforcement) and 43 (commercial interests) of FOIA. The Commissioner considered its application of section 43 to the withheld information. He also considered whether the Bank holds information within the scope of part 4.3 of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 43(2) of FOIA. He also finds that, on the balance of probabilities, the Bank does not hold information in scope of part 4.3 of the request. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
