The complainant made a complaint to the Charity Commission about a named charity. He subsequently requested a copy of the response which the charity had provided to the Charity Commission in response to those allegations. The Charity Commission refused the request under section 31 on the basis that its disclosure would prejudice its ability to investigate such complaints. During the course of the Information Commissioner’s investigation additional information was released. However some information was still withheld under section 40(2) – third party personal data. The Information Commissioner’s decision is that the Charity Commission is entitled to rely on section 40(2) to withhold that information. The Information Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further action in this matter.
