  • Decision(s) FOI 40(2): Upheld

The complainant has requested addresses, postcodes and unit ownership information about local authority-owned blocks. The Royal Borough of Greenwich provided some information but withheld the full addresses and postcodes which it believed were the personal data of the homeowners. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Royal Borough has not applied section 40(2) of the FOIA correctly to all of the withheld information. The Commissioner requires the Royal Borough to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose the full addresses and postcodes of each block that it owns containing six or more units.
