11 December 2017, Education (Other)
The complainant has requested information on meetings between the Chief Executive of OFCOM and Messrs Murdoch. The Office of Communications (OFCOM) refused to provide the requested information, relying on section 44(1)(a) of FOIA (prohibitions on disclosure) in order to do so. In particular OFCOM cited the statutory prohibition on disclosure created by section 237 of the Enterprise Act 2002. The Commissioner’s decision is that OFCOM has correctly applied section 44(1)(a) and the Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.
FOI 44: Not upheld
