Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council

The complainant has asked the Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council for a copy of the questions used by the Council for the recruitment of a Performance and Transformation Officer which took place on 13 December 2017. The Council refused to disclose the requested information in reliance on section 36(2)(c) of the FOIA, on the grounds that disclosure would prejudice the effective conduct of public affairs. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council has correctly applied the exemption to disclosure provided by section 36(2)(c).
