The complainant has requested information relating to negotiations between a record company and the council regarding a music festival. The council applied a number of exemptions to withhold information, including section 36(2)(i) and (ii) and section 36(2)(c). Following discussions with the Commissioner the complainant agreed to only appeal the application of section 36 to the withheld information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was correct to apply section 36(2)(i) and (ii), and section 36(2)(c) to withhold the information. The Commissioner does not require the council to take any steps.
