The complainant requested information from Upshire Primary Foundation School (the school) about building work carried out in Upshire pre-school (the pre-school). The school disclosed some information and withheld some under section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the FOIA). The Information Commissioner (the Commissioner) explained that he considered that the request should have been considered under EIR. The school confirmed it was withholding the information under regulation 13(2)(a)(i). The Commissioner’s decision is that the school has applied regulation 13(2)(a)(i) appropriately. However it is not clear whether the complainant has received a copy of the quote referred to in paragraph 34. If he has not done so, the school should send him a copy.
