18 October 2016, Local government (Borough council)
The complainant has requested information from Bury Metropolitan Borough Council about a named individual who is a former councillor. The Council refused to confirm or deny that it held relevant information under the exemptions provided by section 40(5) and section 41(2) of the Freedom of Information Act. The complainant subsequently contested the Council’s application of these exemptions. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied the exemption provided by section 40(5)(b)(i). The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.
FOI 40(5): Not upheld
