Equality and Human Rights Commission

The complainant has requested information contained in a redacted footnote to a published letter. The above public authority relied on section 40(2) of FOIA (third party personal information) to withhold the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40(2) of FOIA is engaged and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
