Hampshire County Council
The complainant requested information from Hampshire County Council (“the Council”) relating to school transport collection and drop off for the village of Meonstoke. The Council withheld some of the requested information, citing section 40(2) of FOIA (personal information) as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council is entitled to rely on section 40(2) of FOIA to withhold the information it has withheld on this basis. However, he also finds that some information redacted by the council as it does not fall within the scope of the request does, in fact, fall within scope of the request, and that this information should be disclosed. The Commissioner requires the Council to disclose the information redacted from the final sentence of the email sent at 08:19 on 4 November 2022 to ensure compliance with the legislation.
