The complainant requested details of the financial package provided to the previous Chief Executive of Middlesbrough Council (the Council) upon his leaving the Council. The Council refused this request under the exemption provided by section 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council applied section 40(2) correctly and so it is not required to comply with the request.
