University of Exeter

The complainant has requested information on staff dismissals from the University of Exeter (‘the University’). The University released some information within the scope of the complainant’s request and has withheld some under section 40(2) of the FOIA as it considers this information is the personal data of third persons. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: The University is not obliged to comply with the specifics of the complainant’s request under section 40(2) of the FOIA as to do so would disclose the personal data of third persons and would not be lawful. The Commissioner does not require the University to take any remedial steps.

FOI 40: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: IC-38103-W4T8
