The complainant has requested information relating to administration and IT access control. London Borough of Redbridge (the Council) relied on section 40(2) of FOIA (third party personal information) to withhold the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority has correctly relied on section 40(2) of FOIA to withhold the information. However, the Council breached sections 1(1)(a), 10(1) and 17(1) of FOIA by responding outside the statutory time limits for compliance to a request for information. The Commissioner does not require further steps to be taken.
