ICO (Local Government (City Council)) The complainant has requested correspondence between the council and a charitable organisation, Aspiring Communities, and its agents regarding a planning application to build a community centre in Beeston, Leeds. The council disclosed the majority of the information however it withheld the names of some individuals named in the correspondence, and also the contact details for some individuals. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation the council disclosed further names to the complainant however it retained its reliance upon Regulation 12(3) for some individuals. The Commissioner’s decision is that the council has correctly applied Regulation 12(3) to some names, however the identity of other individuals should be disclosed. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose the names of individuals on the steering group who have already been identified on the Aspiring Communities website.
