The complainant requested information held by the council relating to a parking bay in Queen Street, Bolton. The council provided some information however it withheld other information on the basis of section 40(2) (personal data) and other information on the basis that section 42 applies (legal professional privilege). The Commissioner’s decision is that the information is exempt under section 42. He has however decided that the council incorrectly applied section 40(2) to the information.
