The complainant has requested information regarding an investigation report. Worcestershire County Council provided a redacted version of the information on the basis of the exemption at section 40(2) – personal data. The Commissioner’s decision is that Worcestershire County Council correctly applied section 40(2) to the withheld information. She also finds that the council breached section 10(1) of FOIA by failing to respond to the request within the statutory time limit. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken by the council.
