London Borough of Newham

The complainant has requested the London Borough of Newham (the council) to disclose all minutes from the Safety Advisory Group meetings relating to the London Stadium in 2016. The council disclosed some information but withheld other information citing sections 31(1)(a) and 43 of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that sections 31(1)(a) and 43 of the FOIA do not apply and therefore the withheld information should be disclosed to the complainant.
