- Decision(s) FOI 30: Upheld
The complainant requested various information from the Financial Conduct Authority (‘the FCA’) in respect of Lendy. The FCA refused the request citing section 30 FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FCA breached section 17(1)(b) FOIA by failing to specify the relevant subsection of the exemption upon which it was relying. The Commissioner considers that this is necessary in order that the applicant is clear about the reason a request is refused.
