Summary: The complainant requested information relating to a Delivery Plan and funding settlement agreed between the Arts and Humanities Research Council (the AHRC) and the Department for Business Innovation & Skills (BIS). The Commissioner-™s decision is that the exemptions at sections 36(2)(b) and 36(2)(c) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act) were correctly engaged but in all the circumstances of the case, the public interest in maintaining the exemptions did not outweigh the public interest in disclosure in respect of most of the withheld information. The Commissioner requires the AHRC to disclose all of the withheld information excluding the information specifically marked as withheld in the confidential annex to be disclosed only to the AHRC. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Information Tribunal.
