  • Decision(s) FOI 40: Not upheld
The complainant requested a copy of CCTV footage held by Middlesbrough Council (“the council”). The council initially indicated that the complainant could inspect the information by appointment. It subsequently said that the information could not be made available because it was exempt under an exemption relating to personal information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council correctly applied the exemption relating to personal information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (“the FOIA”). He requires no steps to be taken.
