Wolverhampton City Council

The complainant requested information about an individual’s registration as a foster carer. City of Wolverhampton Council (the “Council”) refused to confirm or deny whether the information was held, relying on the exemption for personal information in section 40(5B) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council’s refusal notice did not comply with section 17(1) but that is entitled to rely on section 40(5) to refuse to confirm or deny that it holds the requested information. The Commissioner does not require further steps.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 40(5): Complaint not upheld
