14 March 2017, Central government
The complainant has requested copies of all emails received or sent by a named individual making reference to Ideoba. The Welsh Assembly Government provided some information but refused most of the information relevant to the request by virtue of sections 36(2)(b)(i), 36(2)(b)(ii) and section 36(2)(c). It also withheld a small amount of information by virtue of section 40(2). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Welsh Assembly Government has correctly withheld the information in reliance on sections 36(2)(i) and (ii) and section 40(2) of the FOIA. However, the Welsh Government incorrectly relied on section 36(2)(c). The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Disclose the requested information withheld solely by virtue of section 36(2)(c).
FOI 40: Not upheld FOI 36: Not upheld FOI 36: Upheld
