The Governing Body of the University of Hertfordshire

The complainant requested information relating to the Clinical Psychology Programme. The University of Hertfordshire (University) refused to provide the requested information citing the exemption under section 40(2) of the FOIA (third party personal data) as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the University has correctly applied section 40(2) of FOIA to the withheld information. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps as a result of this decision notice.
