Westminster City Council

The complainant has requested information on correspondence and minutes of meetings between Westminster City Council(“the Council”) and Pret a Manger (“Pret”) related to the issues raised by Real Bread Campaign’s (“the Campaign”) complaint. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council appropriately withheld some of the information in the scope of the request in reliance of section 41(1) – Information provided in confidence and some of the information in the scope of section 43(2) – Commercial interests. However, she finds that the public interest favours disclosure of some of the information withheld under section 43(2). The Commissioner also finds that these exemptions are not engaged in respect of some of the withheld information. The exemption at section 21 – Information accessible to the applicant by other means is not engaged. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose the information as detailed in the Confidential Annex.

FOI 43(2): Complaint upheld FOI 21: Complaint upheld FOI 41: Complaint upheld
