Summary: The complainant requested information relating to the decision-making behind severance and early retirement offers made to staff in the University-™s School of Nursing and Midwifery. The University disclosed some information to the complainant, however it refused to disclose the remainder, citing sections 36(2)(b)(ii), 36(2)(c) and 40(2) of FOIA as a basis for non-disclosure. The Commissioner-™s decision is that section 36(2)(b)(ii) applies to the entirety of the withheld information and that the public interest in maintaining the exemption as set out in that section outweighs the public interest in disclosure of the withheld information. Therefore the Commissioner orders no steps to be taken. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2012/0209 dismissed.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 36 - Complaint Not upheld
