The complainant has requested information with regards to an allotment society. Southend-on-Sea Borough Council (the council) responded to part of the request, but refused to provide the names of the committee members of the allotment society under section 40(2) of the FOIA as it considered it to be third party personal data. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40(2) of the FOIA is engaged. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
