Number of Cases Investigated By A Named Officer – On 10 March 2015, Mrs Gordon asked the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC) for the number of cases a named person was involved in whilst working for the SCCRC. The SCCRC withheld this information on the basis that it was personal data, exempt from disclosure under section 38(1)(b) of FOISA.
Following an investigation, the Commissioner found that the SCCRC was entitled to withhold the information under this exemption, but that its responses were not fully compliant with FOISA. The Commissioner did not require the SCCRC to take any action in respect of these failures.
