Highways England (Central Government): ICO 4 Jun 2021

The complainant has requested a copy of a spreadsheet used by Kier Highways setting out a schedule of rates for Area 3 claims, as well as a description of the rates given to adjustors and a description of the information disclosed about rates. Highways England stated that for the first parts of the request the information was not held and for the descriptors the information was commercially sensitive and should be withheld under section 43(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that Highways England does not hold the information requested at parts (1) and (2) of the request and has correctly refused to provide the information at part (3) on the basis of section 43(2) of the FOIA.
