House of Lords Appointments Commission

The complainant submitted a request to The House of Lords Appointments Commission (HOLAC) seeking information it held relating to Ross Kempsell and Charlotte Owen both of whom received peerages in Boris Johnson’s resignation honours list. HOLAC confirmed it held information falling within the scope of the request but withheld this on the basis of sections 37(1)(b) (honours), 41(1) (information provided in confidence) and 40(2) (personal data) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 37(1)(b) and that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest favours maintaining the exemption

FOI 37: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 267640
