  • Decision(s) FOI 43: Not upheld

The complainant has requested information relating to cash deposits made by Lycamobile. Ultimately the Post Office refused to confirm or deny whether it held the requested information, relying on sections 41(2) breach of confidence and section 43(3) –prejudice to commercial interests, as its grounds for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Post Office is entitled to refuse to confirm whether the information is held under section 43(3). The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further action in this matter.
