- Decision(s) FOI 40(5B): Not upheld
The complainant has requested information relating to the occupation of a property. The Northern Ireland Housing Executive (NIHE) refused to neither confirm nor deny whether it held any information citing section 40(5B) of FOIA (neither confirm nor deny provision (NCND) within the personal information exemption). The Commissioner’s decision is that NIHE was correct to rely on section 40(5B) to issue an NCND response to the request. He does not require NIHE to take any steps.
