The complainant requested details about the ‘losses statement’ in the public authority’s accounts for 2009/10. He was provided with some information but the remainder was withheld using the exemptions at sections 40(2) and 43(2) of the FOIA. During the Information Commissioner’s investigation some further information was also provided. The Information Commissioner’s decision is that part of the information is exempt under sections 43(2) and 40(2), but some should be disclosed. The Information Commissioner requires the public authority to provide the names and business addresses of the untraceable and bankrupt sole practitioners.
