The complainant has requested information relating to one of the University of Cambridge's (the University's) academics. The University withheld the information at part one of the request under section 40(2) FOIA (personal information) and stated that any information relating to parts two and three of the request is not held for the purposes of FOIA under the provisions of section 3(2). The Commissioner's decision is that any requested information relating to parts two and three of the request is not held by the University for its own purposes and therefore falls outside the definition of information held for the purposes of FOIA under section 3(2). He has also decided that the information at part one of the request was correctly withheld under section 40(2) FOIA. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
