The complainant has requested information about money paid by West Sussex County Council (‘the Council’) to place children into secure care accommodation facilities in Scotland, broken down by care facility. The Council refused the request under section 40(2) of the FOIA, as it considered that the information it held comprised third party personal data. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council correctly withheld the requested information under section 40(2) of the FOIA, and she does not require the Council to take any steps.
