Olympic Delivery Authority

  • Date 16 October 2013
  • Sector Central government
  • Decision(s) EIR 13: Upheld, EIR 3: Not upheld
The complainant requested correspondence between the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) and its subcontractor STRI, and also for documents held by STRI about information relating to the reinstatement of Leyton Marsh after its use as a temporary basketball Games-time training venue. The Commissioner’s decision is that the ODA is correct to state that information held solely by STRI is not held by the ODA under the terms of the EIR. However, the Commissioner’s decision is that the ODA misapplied regulation 13 of the EIR (personal data) in some of the redactions it made to the information that was disclosed to the complainant. The Commissioner requires the public authority to provide a new response to the complainant’s request for correspondence with STRI with redactions made in accordance with the Commissioner’s conclusions.
