Department for Transport

The complainant has requested information on rail franchise contracts including information on subsidies, premium payments and total parent company support set aside by each franchisee or bidder. The Department for Transport (“DfT”) withheld this information on the basis of the exceptions at sections 44(1)(a), 41 and 21 of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the DfT has correctly refused to disclose the majority of the information on the basis of section 44(1)(a) by virtue of section 145 of the Railways Act 1993. For the remaining information on past premium payments she finds the DfT has correctly refused to provide the information on the basis of section 21.

FOI 21: Complaint not upheld FOI 44: Complaint not upheld
