The complainant requested information about pupils at a specific primary school. Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council (the “council”) refused the request under the exemption for personal information (section 40(2)).
The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has correctly relied on section 40(2) of the FOIA to withhold the information. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any further steps.
