Summary: The complainant requested statistical information from the Local Government Ombudsman (the -˜LGO-™) regarding the work of one individual case officer. The LGO claimed that the information was exempt under sections 40 and 36 and that it also wished to rely on section 12 of the Act. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the information is the personal data of the case officer and that disclosing the information would be unfair for the purposes of the first data protection principle of the Data Protection Act 1998. Accordingly his decision is that the information is exempt under section 40 of the Act. He has not therefore considered the application of the other exemptions further. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2010/0190 dismissed.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld
