Summary: The complainant requested the names of the journalists that were identified by the ICO in Operation Motorman, whose generic details were provided in its What Price Privacy? report. The ICO confirmed that it held this information, but argued that it was exempt by virtue of section 40(2) [the -˜third party personal data-™ exemption]. The Commissioner finds that the ICO correctly withheld the information by virtue of section 40(2). He has also found that the information could also be correctly withheld by virtue of section 44(1). He requires no remedial steps to be taken.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 44 - Complaint Not upheld
