London Borough of Waltham Forest

The complainant has requested London Borough of Waltham Forest (the Council) to disclose information relating to Council owned Local Authority Trading Companies (LATC’s). The Council disclosed some information but stated that the remainder is exempt from disclosure under section 21 of FOIA, as it is accessible to the complainant by other means. For one element, it stated that the information has been provided but it was not in full. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 21 of FOIA applies, except in relation to the turnover of each LATC. For the email addresses requested, although the Council states that this information has been provided, the complainant and Commissioner cannot see where or when this information was disclosed. The Commissioner requires the Council to disclose the turnover of each LATC and either provide the email addresses requested or issue a refusal notice for this information, in accordance with section 17 of FOIA.

FOI 21: Complaint partly upheld

Decision notice: 185877
