University of East London

The complainant has requested information from the University of East London (the university) relating to their own complaint and alterations to digital policy documents on the university website. The university provided some information but exempted most of the request, applying section 40(1) FOIA as it stated that it was the complainant’s own personal data. The Commissioner’s decision is that the requested information withheld under section 40(1) FOIA is the complainant’s own personal data and cannot be disclosed under FOIA. He has also decided that the university does not, on the balance of probabilities, hold any further information. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
