London Borough of Barking and Dagenham

The complainant has requested addresses, postcodes and property ownership information about local authority-owned blocks. The public authority disclosed some of the information in scope including an aggregated total of the number of apartments in blocks with less than 5 units broken down by ownership information. It however withheld individual apartment door numbers relying on the exemption at section 40(2) FOIA (personal data).

The Commissioner has concluded that the public authority was entitled to rely on the exemption at section 40(2) FOIA.
