Department for Transport

The complainant has requested information about taxi permits for Sevenoaks Station from SE Trains Limited (SETL). SETL is owned by the Department for Transport. However, for the purposes of this decision notice SETL will be referenced throughout. The Commissioner’s decision is that SETL was correct to rely on section 14(2) (repeat requests) of FOIA to refuse parts 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 14 and 15 of the request. The Commissioner also finds that SETL was correct to rely on section 40(2) (third party personal information) of FOIA to refuse parts 12, 13 and 16 of the request. Finally, the Commissioner is satisfied that, on the balance of probabilities, SETL does not hold the remaining information sought by the request. However, SETL breached section 1(1)(a) of FOIA as it failed to communicate to the complainant that it did not hold the remaining information. The Commissioner does not require SETL to take any further steps.

FOI 14(2): Complaint partly upheld FOI 40(2): Complaint not upheld FOI 1: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 237348
