The complainant requested information held by the Charity Commission regarding an investigation into a particular charity. The Charity Commission refused the request under sections 21 (available accessible by other means), 31 (law enforcement), 32 (inquiries), and 40 (personal data). The Information Commissioner’s decision is that the Charity Commission correctly applied section 32 to most of the information it withheld and that it correctly applied section 31 to the remainder of the withheld information. The Information Commissioner does not therefore require the Charity Commission to take any steps in relation to this complaint.
