Summary: The complainant requested from the Department for Education (-�DfE-�) all correspondence about the Tottenham Palestinian Literature Festival, including communications to the Secretary of State which may have prompted him to intervene in relation to schools participation in workshops organised as part of the festival and his responses to those communications. The DfE withheld some of the requested information under sections 36 and 40(2). The Commissioner-�s decision is that the DfE has correctly applied section 36 to the withheld information. The Commissioner does not therefore require the DfE to take any further steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Information Tribunal.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 36 - Complaint Not upheld
