The complainant submitted a request to London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) for information relating to the management company of the London Aquatic Centre.
The Commissioner’s decision is that LLDC was correct to withhold some of the requested information under section 43(2) (commercial interests) and section 40(2) (third-party personal information) of FOIA. However, he finds that some of the withheld information does not engage section 43(2). The Commissioner also found that LLDC breached sections 1(1)(a), 10(1) and 17(1) of FOIA regarding the timeliness of its response.
The Commissioner requires LLDC to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation:
•    Disclose the documents titled Schedule 1 Appendix 12 Sports Development Proposals and Schedule 1 Appendix 12 Sports Development Plan 2024-2025 with any personal data redacted in accordance with his guidance.
