- Decision(s) FOI 40(5a): Not upheld
The complainant has requested information relating to a complaint. The above public authority provided some information, but the complainant considers that more is held. The Commissioner’s decision is that any information the public authority held would be the complainant’s own personal data. As such, the public authority should not confirm or deny, under FOIA, whether it holds any relevant information. The Commissioner has therefore applied section 40(5A) of FOIA himself, proactively, to avoid any inadvertent disclosure. The Commissioner does not require any further steps.
