  • Decision(s) FOI 42: Not upheld

The complainant has requested from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) information specifically related to the Data sharing code of practice draft code for consultation, and the final Data Sharing Code of Practice. The ICO provided information via a series of links that was technically withheld because it was publicly accessible information (section 21) but withheld some information under section 42(1) legal professional privilege (LPP). The Commissioner’s decision is that the ICO has cited section 42(1) appropriately. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further steps.
