Kings College London
The complainant has requested information from King’s College London (KCL) relating to donations made by a named donor. KCL provided some information but withheld other information, citing sections 41(1) (information provided in confidence), 43(2) (commercial interests) and 40(2) (personal information) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that KCL correctly cited sections 41(1) and 43(2) of FOIA. The public interest regarding section 43 lies in non-disclosure. The Commissioner finds that KCL breached sections 1(1)(b) and 10(1) of FOIA by disclosing information to which the complainant was entitled beyond the legislative timeframe. It breached section 17(1) of FOIA by later relying on exemptions it had not included in the refusal notice. The Commissioner does not require further steps.FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 43(2): Complaint not upheld FOI 41(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 1: Complaint upheld FOI 10(1): Complaint upheld
