The complainant has requested information relating to Liverpool tunnel tolls. Merseytravel refused the request, citing the exemption for prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs (36(2)(b)(i) and section 36(2)(b)(ii) of the FOIA). The Commissioner’s decision is that Merseytravel: was the appropriate public authority to handle the request, that it correctly handled the request under the FOIA and complied with section 1 of the FOIA; that it failed to demonstrate that the exemptions in section 36(2)(b)(i) and 36(2)(b)(ii) were engaged. The Commissioner requires the public authority disclose the requested information to the complainant, excluding the names and contact details of junior members of staff.
FOI 1: Not upheld FOI 36: Not upheld
