- Decision(s) FOI 40: Not upheld
The complainant has requested information relating to a complaint made by [named individual] to the ICO. The ICO refused to confirm or deny whether the requested information was held under section 40(5) FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the exemption at section 40(5) FOIA is applicable in this case and therefore the ICO can neither confirm nor deny if the information requested is held as to do so would be a disclosure of personal data. She requires no steps to be taken. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2018/0155 struck out.
