- Decision(s) FOI 40(2): Not upheld
In a five part request, the complainant requested information about employees who’ve been suspended. UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) withheld the information requested in parts 3 and 4 of the request under section 40(2) of FOIA, which concerns personal data. For parts 1 and 5, UKHSA advised that the numbers involved are less than 10 and applied section 40(2) to the specific numbers. It disclosed the information requested in part 2. The Commissioner’s decision is that UKHSA has correctly applied section 40(2) of FOIA to parts 3 and 4 of the request and it’s not necessary for it to take any corrective steps.
