General Dental Council

The complainant requested information relating to a decision taken not to alter the Annual Retention Fee. The General Dental Council withheld the requested information and relied on section 36 of the FOIA to do so. The Commissioner’s decision is that sections 36(2)(b)(i) and 36(2)(b)(ii) are engaged in respect of all the withheld information. In respect of the majority of the withheld information, the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. However, in respect of one document, the public interest favours disclosure. Section 36(2)(c) is not engaged in respect of any of the withheld information. The Commissioner requires the GDC to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose a copy of the Chairman’s email to colleagues of 27 April 2020.

FOI 36: Complaint partly upheld

Decision notice: IC-53168
