Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead
The complainant requested copies of any letters held by Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead (the council) which it received from residential care providers requesting 16, 17 and 18% increases in their fee rates for 2024-25. The council refused the request, citing section 43(2) (commercial interests) of FOIA. During the Commissioner’s investigation, the complainant confirmed that they were content for information that identified any care provider to be redacted before disclosure of the requested information. The Commissioner has decided that the council has failed to demonstrate that section 43(2) of FOIA is engaged in respect of the information held which falls within scope of the request that would not, if disclosed, identify any care provider. The Commissioner requires the council to disclose the information highlighted in yellow which has been provided separately to this decision notice.
FOI 43(2):
Complaint not upheld
Decision notice:
314424
