  • Decision(s) FOI 14(1): Not upheld

The complainant requested information about the number of Directors and Heads of Department that had been placed on Performance Improvement Plans(“PIPs”). The Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) refused to comply with the request under section 14(1) of FOIA (vexatious requests). The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was vexatious and therefore the FCA was entitled to rely on section 14(1) of FOIA to refuse the request. The Commissioner does not require the FCA to take any further steps.
