31 October 2016, Local government (District council)
The complainant has requested information from Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council about the departure of the Council’s former Chief Executive. The Council withheld some of the information under the exemption provided by section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied the exemption provided by section 40(2). However the Council breached section 17(1) by failing to issue its refusal notice within the time for compliance. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
FOI 17: Upheld FOI 40: Not upheld
