The complainant has requested information from Ofqual relating to the Acting Chief Regulator’s report and Board minutes. Ofqual provided some information but refused other information citing section 36(i), (ii) and 36(2)(c)(prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs), section 42 (legal professional privilege) and section 22 (future publication). The Commissioner’s decision is that Ofqual has cited section 36 appropriately to part seven of the information request and that the public interest at the time the request was made favoured withholding the requested information. The Commissioner does not require Ofqual to take any further steps.
