School Teachers' Review Body

The complainant has requested information about the last two pay remit rounds. The above public authority provided some information but relied on section 36 of FOIA (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs) to withhold the remainder. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority has correctly relied on section 36(2)(b)(ii) of FOIA and that the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner does not require further steps to be taken.
