The complainant requested information about specific costs charged by three third parties for legal advice and representation during proceedings against the charity Kids Company. The Insolvency Service withheld the information under section 43(2) (commercial interests) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Insolvency Service has correctly relied on section 43(2) of FOIA and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining this exemption. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
