- Decision(s) FOI 44: Not upheld
The complainant has requested information relating to a category of employers known as Special Category Employers (“SCEs”). The Pension Protection Fund (“the PPF”) consider the requested information to be “restricted information” which is prohibited from disclosure under section 197 of the Pensions Act 2004[1].
The Commissioner’s decision is that the PPF has correctly applied section 44(1)(a) of the FOIA on the basis that the requested information is prohibited from disclosure under section 197 of the Pensions Act 2004.
The Commissioner does not require the PPF to take any further steps.
