The complainant has requested information concerning repairs carried out by the London Borough of Islington (the council) on a specific property. The council refused the request on the grounds that it was the personal data of the occupier of that property and that disclosure would be unfair. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council was correct to refuse the request as the exemption provided by section 40(2) of the FOIA was engaged. The council is not, therefore, required to disclose this information.
